Geochronology

Geochronology is the science of determining  the age of rocks, fossils, and sediments using signatures inherent in the rocks themselves. Absolute geochronology can be accomplished through radioactive isotopes, whereas relative geochronology is provided by tools such as palaeomagnetism and stable isotope ratios. This book covers the standard principles and methods and incorporates many of new developments from the last decades. Therefore, the book should be of basic interest both for scientists in their
practical in field and laboratory, as well as for general educational purpose.
