Low-Grade Metamorphism explores processes and transformations in rocks during the early stages of metamorphic recrystallization. There has been little analysis and documentation of this wide-spread phenomenon, especially of the substantial and exciting advances that have taken place in the subject over the last decade; this book rectifies the shortfall, building on the foundations of Low-Temperature Metamorphism by Martin Frey (1987). The Editors have invited contributions from an internationally acknowledged team of experts, who have aimed the book at advanced undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers in the field.
