Meteorite research is fundamental to our understanding of the origin and early history of the Solar System. This advanced yet succinct introduction to meteorites and many of their properties will be valuable to graduate students and scientists in astrophysics, space research, cosmochemistry, geochemistry, isotope geology and earth and planetary sciences.

Robert Hutchison was a retired research scientist and curator of meteorites at the Natural History Museum, London, prior to his death in 2007.
