In recent years there have been tremendous strides forward in the research on thrust tectonics, bringing this major subfield to the forefront of structural geology. This update covers a wide range of these advances and represents a "benchmark" volume in this field. Topics discussed include: problems of balancing, thrust sequencing, the dynamics of accretionary wedges, computer and analogue modelling and strain within thrust sheets. This book should be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers of geology, and a wide range of professionals in the oil and mining industries.

Detailed mapping and analysis of the structural features of rocks enable the 3D geometry of their structures to be reconstructed. The resulting evidence of the stresses and movement patterns which rocks have undergone indicates the processes by which they were formed, and allows evaluation of past deformations of the earth's crust. Written to show how one actually describes, measures and records rock structures such as folds and faults with the emphasis on accuracy, detail and on-going interpretation throughout, this handbook gives students and enthusiasts the practical information and guidance which allows their fieldwork to become vastly more rewarding. "...the author is to be congratulated on producing such an excellent text. The whole range of mapping techniques that an undergraduate student will require are described and the book will still be immense help to post-graduates setting out on their research work. The book represents extremely good value and is thoroughly recommended."--C.R.L. Friend, Mineralogical Magazine
