The Handbook of Poststack Seismic Attributes is a general reference for poststack seismic attributes intended for reflection seismologists in petroleum exploration. The goal of the book is to bring greater understanding and order to the important and rapidly evolving science of seismic attributes, so that geophysicists can apply attributes more effectively to interpret seismic data. To this end, I emphasize what all attributes have in common, what they mean, and what they measure, arguing that the meaning of an attribute should guide both its implementation and its application.

The two volumes on Stable Isotope Techniques are dedicated to my colleague and former tutor Simon M.F. Sheppard. He was the person who introduced me, during my study period in the Centre de Recherches P6trographiques et G6ochimiques, at Vandoeuvre-l~s-Nancy, France, to the wonderful world of stable isotopes applied to earth science, especially in the field of geochemistry and mineral deposits.

The investigation of stratiform/stratabound ore deposits associated with sediments and volcanics and ranging in age from Precambrian to Recent, has become a specialized branch within the wider scope of ore petrology. It is, by all means, not an entirely new field of endeavour and it has always had a place in economic geology, but an accelerated shift in both individualized and collective efforts in the study of the stratiform mineral accumulations has resulted in a large amount of dispersed data.
