Book Description
This volume includes 61 papers from a conference held in Edinburgh in September 1982 to consider all aspects of geology relevant to the tectonic evolution of the Eastern Mediterranean. The book is organised in 5 sections by age of events discussed and by area within this framework. The first is concerned with early Mesozoic events linked to ocean closure and so by implication deals with the fate of the Palaeozoic Tethys or Palaeotethys. Later sections deal with events following the birth and growth of wholly Mesozoic ocean basins of the Neotethys.
