註釋

The rocks of the British Isles preserve evidence for rifting, mountain building, terrane accretion, volcanic arcs and even mantle plumes. Many of the concepts that underpin geological analysis stem from observations that were first made in the British Isles. This book traces the geological and tectonic history of the British Isles, from the Archean to the Tertiary, as they took part in episodes of global super-continent amalgamation and break-up.This book covers Geological'Anatomy' of the British Isles, Great Events : A Global Context for the Evolution of the British Isles, The Lewisian, Archean Processes and how Cratons Form, Uniting the British Isles and Episodes of Extensional Magmatism.
