Second Edition. This second edition of The Geology of England and Wales is considerably expanded from its predecessor, reflecting the increase in our knowledge of the region, and particularly of the offshore areas. Forty specialists have contributed to 18 chapters, which are placed in approximately temporal order. The final chapter looks at the future, from the short-term effects of climate change and sea-level rise to the position of our region in a possible plate tectonic configuration 200 million years hence. While the authors have taken a 'dynamic' view of the evolution of the area over geological time, they have also ensured that the geological evidence on which the interpretations are based is reviewed thoroughly. Hence the volume provides an invaluable resource for both Earth scientists and the broader community. Laminated boards, viii, 559 pages, 8.5 X 11 inches. Near fine copy, corners a touch rubbed, spine ends slightly crushed and a little smudging to the bottom and fore edges of the pages.
