This book documents the rich and spectacular heritage of the
Australian continent over the last 4400 million years. Now in its
third edition, The Geology of Australia provides a comprehensive
overview of Australia's geology, landscapes and Earth resources.
Beginning with the Precambrian rocks that hold clues to the origins
of life and the development of an oxygenated atmosphere, it goes on
to cover the warm seas, volcanism and episodes of mountain building
that formed the eastern third of the Australian continent. This
illuminating history details the breakup of the supercontinents
Rodinia and Gondwana, the times of previous glaciations, the
development of climates and landscapes in modern Australia, and the
creation of the continental shelves and coastlines. This third
edition features two new chapters on geological time and Paleozoic
orogenic rock systems and mountain building, and new and updated
illustrations and full-colour images.
