Rezensionen
"Many readers will be familiar with this excellent textbook . . . The subject coverage is more comprehensive than in previous editions with many of the processes and concepts being illustrated with case studies drawn from the recent literature. "
"A massive list of mostly critical references cites the most important works the world over." (CHOICE, November 2009)"An excellent in-depth overview on one of the most revo-lutionary topics in the earth sciences. ... Not only clear and comprehensive, but also pleasant to read. It is a highly recommended must-have on the bookshelves of earth scien-tists for some time to come."
"Global Tectonics will find its place in all well equipped libraries and a personal copy will be of use for any geoscientist who needs a comprehensive overview."
"This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the field of global tectonics. Because the field has changed significantly since the last edition was published, the majority of text and figures in the third edition are new."
