Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Original printed wraps 17x24cm. 19pp Arabic + 17pp English translated by Dr Zein Eddin A. Ghunaimy, Assistant Geography Professor, Kuwait University, with b/w maps and photos. Very good with presentation ink stamp to the Arabic title page. Part of a series of papers issued jointly by the Geography Department of Kuwait University, and the Kuwait Geographical Society. Its Editorial Board included the University's Head of Geography Dr Abdullah Al-Ghunaim, and KGS President Ibrahim Al-Shatti. They published papers of direct interest to countries in the Arabian Gulf, as well as more general and widely applicable studies. These were either prepared in Kuwait, or translated from other sources usually by Geography Department staff with a new introduction. This study drew on previous work, and a field visit in 1971. Evidence from shells and sand depoisits in the SW of the island indicate that they developed as a result of rising sea levels in the post-glacial period and possible subsidence at the head of the Gulf. The results are tentative and need more research.
