Regional Geology and Tectonics 2nd Edition

Regional Geology and Tectonics, 2nd Edition by Domenico Chiarella, Nicola Scarselli, and Jürgen Adam is an authoritative, up-to-date synthesis for anyone who studies Earth’s structural evolution. Combining clear explanations with rigorous science, this second edition unpacks complex regional geology and plate-scale tectonic processes in a way that’s accessible to advanced students, researchers, and industry professionals.

Discover a cohesive journey through orogenic belts, continental margins, basins, and sutures—illustrated by crisp maps, cross-sections, and stratigraphic summaries that clarify tectonic histories and geodynamic interpretations. The authors integrate modern plate-tectonic theory, geochronology, and structural analysis to explain how deformation, metamorphism, magmatism, and sedimentation interact across diverse provinces.

Whether you’re preparing for fieldwork, teaching a course in structural geology or tectonics, or seeking a reliable reference for exploration and research, this volume delivers practical insights and regional case studies that bridge observation and theory. The balanced mix of regional synthesis and methodological guidance makes it ideal for designing research questions, interpreting seismic data, or comparing global tectonic settings.

Readable yet scholarly, the book enhances your understanding of Earth’s architecture and the processes that shape continents.
