Cratons and Fold Belts of India, is a unique attempt at
presenting geological characteristics and evolution of the fold
belts and the cratonic areas of the Indian shield. The author has
evaluated the different evolutionary models for each fold belt in
light of all the currently available geological and
geochronological informations that are clearly listed.
Shortcomings, if any, of each model are stated and a viable
geodynamic model is presented for each fold belt. The book is
self-contained it includes an introduction to the processes of
mountain building, especially plate tectonics theory with its
application to the evolution of the Himalaya as an illustrative
example so that the reader can better appreciate the novel approach
to the evolution of Proterozoic fold belts. The author eschews a
detailed account of the fold belts for a clear description of all
the concepts that go into building models. It is primarily written
for graduate students, teachers and for those geoscientists who
aspire to know all about the Indian shield."
