Focusing on the geological evolution of India's fold belts and cratonic areas, this book evaluates various evolutionary models against current geological and geochronological data. It highlights the strengths and shortcomings of each model while proposing viable geodynamic frameworks. The text includes an introduction to mountain-building processes and plate tectonics, using the Himalayas as a case study. Aimed at graduate students and geoscientists, it emphasizes conceptual clarity over exhaustive details, making it accessible for those seeking to understand the Indian shield's geology.
