Hardbound. Part 1 covers the origin of mountains and tectonic facies mapping, and discusses the geologic thinking on orogenesis, the archipelago model of orogenesis, and the making of a tectonic facies map. Part 2 interprets the geology of the Greater Tibet in terms of the backarc evolution of two archipelagos and their collision. Part 3 defines the Paleozoic archipelagos of North China by delineating their magmatic front. The tectonic evolution of North China is interpreted on the basis of archipelago model of orogenesis. ...

Part 3 defines the Paleozoic archipelagos of North China by delineating their magmatic front. The tectonic evolution of North China is interpreted on the basis of archipelago model of orogenesis. Part 4 discusses the geology of Central China in terms of its collision with two archipelagos, North China and South China. Part 5 covers the geology of South China in terms of the back arc evolution and plate collision, pointing out that the terrains underlying South China are deformation belts, not a platform. Part 6 discusses the geology of NE China and SE coastal China in terms of a plate collision. Part 7 handles
