Review: Fantastic book to study meteorites - I recently dove straight down the rabbit hole of meteorites and this book has been an invaluable teacher
Review: Not a beginners book - This is the most comprehensive and in-depth coverage of the subject currently available. A scholarly work for those seriously interested in learning all facets of the origin, life and identification of meteors and meteorites. This is not a beginners book on the subject, but, then again, the price should be a clue that this is a textbook and not a simple narrative. Worth the investment if you’re truly interested in the subject and it’s the only book you’ll need.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic book to study meteorites
*by R***R on August 11, 2025*

I recently dove straight down the rabbit hole of meteorites and this book has been an invaluable teacher

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a beginners book
*by M***D on August 14, 2019*

This is the most comprehensive and in-depth coverage of the subject currently available. A scholarly work for those seriously interested in learning all facets of the origin, life and identification of meteors and meteorites. This is not a beginners book on the subject, but, then again, the price should be a clue that this is a textbook and not a simple narrative. Worth the investment if you’re truly interested in the subject and it’s the only book you’ll need.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Geologists Opinion
*by E***G on December 25, 2014*

This is an excellent guide for the meteorite enthusiast with a geology or other technical background. The authors delve deeply into the origins, types, elemental compositions, mineralogy assemblages, and advanced techniques for the identification of meteorites. I found this book to be more helpful and complete than other meteorite books that I've read. As a geologist, I found the chapter on optical mineralogy to be particularly interesting and unique. The appendices are full of interesting information. Each chapter has a list of good references. High quality color photos are included throughout. I highly recommend this book.
