ResumoThe volume under review - the proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southwestern (U.S.) Federation of Geological Societies - has a very strong regional accent in its array of reports, which largely concentrate on the subsurface fluids in the Texas-New Mexico area. Because of, or despite this fact, the book will be of great value to workers in a great variety of disciplines, which all deal in one way or aaother with subsurface fluids..There are more links between the papers than with a world-wide origin of the contributions, but geveral of the readers will have no previous familiarity with the area. Accepting the extra trouble which the latter might involve, one will find that the papers contain much information of wide interest and applicability. Since book reviews of symposium volumes frequently run the risk of becoming verbose presentations of the list of contents, the reviewer preferred to bring to the fore this time the more general aspects of symposium publications. For more detailed information on the book in question the list of contents follows: Fluids in subsurface environments (J.E. Galley) Mineral fluids and America's future (T.B. Nolan) Petroleum - its origin in the earth (J.G. Erdman) Migration and segregation of oil and gas (S.R. Silverman) Oil and gas in southwestern region - geologic framework (G.R.
