Book Description
"Using results from geological mapping, detailed stratigraphy, mineral chemistry, and geochemistry, the authors have developed a model to explain characteristics of Dominica not seen on many island arcs worldwide. The model suggests that during the Pleistocene partial melting of the island-arc crust generated a single magma body of batholithic proportions beneath the island"--Provided by publisher.

Book Description
This book focuses on the highly touristed, but surprisingly under-researched Lesser Antilles region. After offering a brief overview of the region’s geologic and tectonic history, as well as its basic climatology, subsequent chapters then discuss each island’s (or island set’s) geomorphology and geology, and how the settlement history, tourism, and hazards have affected their individual landscapes. Written by regional experts and replete with up-to-date information, stunning color imagery, and beautiful cartography (maps), it is the only comprehensive, scientific evaluation of the Lesser Antilles, and serves as the region’s definitive reference resource. Accessible to non-experts and amateur explorers, the book includes in-depth discussions and reference sections for each island/island set. Usable as both a textbook and guidebook, it offers readers a straightforward yet detailed assessment of an interesting and intriguing – but often-overlooked and under-appreciated – locale.
