dana mineral classification: The Encyclopedia of Mineralogy Keith Frye, 1981-12-31 The Encyclopedia of Mineralogy provides comprehensive, basic treatment of the science of mineralogy. More than 140 articles by internationally known scholars and research workers describe specific areas of mineralogical interest, and a glossary of 3000 entries defines all valid mineral species and many related mineral names. In addition to traditional topics - descriptions of major structural groups, methods of mineral analysis, and the paragenesis of mineral species - this volume embraces such subjects as asbestiform minerals, minerals found in caves and in living beings, and gems and gemology. It includes current data on the latest in our geological inventories - lunar minerals. It describes the properties, characteristics, and uses of industrial resources such as abrasive materials and Portland cement. A directory will guide traveling mineralogists to the major mineralogical museums of the world, with their special interests noted. Clear technical illustrations supplement the text throughout. To help the student and professional find particular information there are a comprehensive subject index, extensive cross-references of related topics (whether in this volume or others in the series), and reference lists to background information and detailed advanced treatment of all topics. The Encyclopedia of Mineralogy is a valuable reference and source for professionals in all geological sciences, for science teachers at all levels, for collectors and `rock hounds', and for all who are curious about the minerals on earth or those brought back from outer space. |

dana mineral classification: Imperfect Oracle Theodore L. Brown, 2015-08-26 Science and its offshoot, technology, enter into the very fabric of our society in so many ways that we cannot imagine life without them. We are surrounded by crises and debates over climate change, stem-cell research, AIDS, evolutionary theory and “intelligent design,” the use of DNA in solving crimes, and many other issues. Society is virtually forced to follow our natural tendency, which is to give great weight to the opinions of scientific experts. How is it that these experts have come to acquire such authority, and just how far does their authority reach? Does specialized knowledge entitle scientists to moral authority as well? How does scientific authority actually function in our society, and what are the countervailing social forces (including those deriving from law, politics, and religion) with which it has to contend? Theodore Brown seeks to answer such questions in this magisterial work of synthesis about the role of science in society. In Part I, he elucidates the concept of authority and its relation to autonomy, and then traces the historical growth of scientific authority and its place in contemporary American society. In Part II, he analyzes how scientific authority plays out in relation to other social domains, such as law, religion, government, and the public sphere. |

dana mineral classification: Online Databases and Other Internet Resources for Earth Science Pillarisetty Venkataramana, 2007-10-31 Though an enormous amount of information relating to earth sciences are available on the Internet, for a serious researcher, teacher, librarian or a student who has deadlines to meet, searching the Internet for specific scientific information can at times be frustrating. The main purpose of Online Databases and Other Internet Resources for Earth Science is to group these resources together and to provide the URLs and hyperlinks so a researcher, teacher or student can access them with the minimum effort, time and cost. The book also introduces the reader to a few basic concepts that propel the Internet and the world wide web so that he or she can make informed searches apart from assessing the quality and reliability of the data available on the internet. A brief introduction is provided on the current status of the draft treaty by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the EU directive on copyright restrictions for scientific databases and what a researcher is permitted to do with the data obtained from the Internet, especially those from a commercial data provider. - Earth science resources on the Internet are grouped into various categories: such as journals, databases, multimedia, directories, teaching aids and mailing lists - Online earth science publications and a list of open access publications related to earth sciences - The databases are further grouped into bibliographic data, specimen collection, chemical analysis, geophysical data, etc. |

dana mineral classification: Earth's Minerals Yves Earhart, AI, 2025-01-30 Earth's Minerals presents a fascinating exploration of our planet's fundamental building blocks, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of how minerals shape both geological processes and human civilization. The book masterfully weaves together three essential themes: the intricate processes of mineral formation, systematic classification methods, and crucial industrial applications. Through clear scientific prose, it reveals how temperature, pressure, and chemical conditions combine to create over 5,000 distinct mineral species, each with unique crystalline structures and properties. The text progresses logically from basic mineralogical principles to complex real-world applications, making it accessible to both students and professionals. Readers learn practical identification techniques based on characteristics like hardness and luster, while gaining insights into how modern analytical methods, such as X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy, have revolutionized our understanding of mineral structures. The book pays particular attention to major mineral groups, including silicates, carbonates, and precious metals, explaining their significance in both natural systems and industrial processes. What sets this book apart is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting pure mineralogy with urgent contemporary issues like sustainability, environmental impact, and global supply chains. By examining minerals from both microscopic and macroscopic perspectives, the text provides a complete picture of these essential earth materials. The inclusion of recent research findings and emerging technologies makes it especially valuable for those seeking to understand the crucial role minerals play in modern technology and environmental challenges. |
