Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the geological history of the British Isles from the perspective of geotectonics and geography. It examines physical conditions in each geological period, focusing on the rocks formed during these periods to determine the relative positions of land and water. The author employs evidence from shallow- and deep-water beds, variations in thickness, and unconformities to reconstruct the geography of past eras. The book traces the succession of physical and geographical changes that led to the current disposition of land and water in northwestern Europe, highlighting the evolution of the British Isles from ancient landmasses to the islands they are today. Through detailed analysis and discussion, this book sheds light on the dynamic processes that have shaped the geological landscape of the British Isles over millions of years.
