The crash of the Indian plate into Asia is the biggest known
collision in geological history, and it continues today. The result
is the Himalaya and Karakoram - one of the largest mountain ranges
on Earth. The Karakoram has half of the world's highest mountains
and a reputation as being one of the most remote and savage ranges
of all. In this beautifully illustrated book, Mike Searle, a
geologist at the University of Oxford and one of the most
experienced field geologists of our time, presents a rich account
of the geological forces that were involved in creating these
mountain ranges. Using his personal accounts of extreme
mountaineering and research in the region, he pieces together the
geological processes that formed such impressive peaks.
