From the Foreword: "The present two volumes, provide an exhaustive and commendable synthesis of Indian geology, covering the major recent advances. They have thereby generated, perhaps, the almost up-to-date and authentic publication on the subject now available. The authors have taken to a central path in areas of modeling diversity. Most evolutionary models find a mention in the text. Areas of geophysics and geochemistry are emphasized, but the main focus is on structure, tectonics, stratigraphy and the geological milieu. Though the Global stratigraphic scale is broadly followed, formations are described keeping in view their spatial and temporal continuity. Such a presentation has the merit of ensuring a wholesome picture of the geological history behind each of these geological entities which will be lost when mutilated into the various systems in the international scale. The book presents a selected bibliography that lists most of the significant contributions. The authors are constrained to be brief in several sections due to limitations of space. A comprehensive treatise, the book would prove to be an up-to-date source of information on Indian continental geology.".

The volume that you hold in your hands is a rich visual celebration of India's landforms covering the entire geological time scale ranging from the Hadean (~4600 ma) to the Recent (Holocene), using different mediums including earth-based terrestrial photography, remote sensing satellite images and time-honoured traditional topographic maps. The union of different ways of viewing the earth's features presented in this volume creates a rare, more holistic view of India's geologic and human landscape that has not yet been available before. An easily accessible text, with the aid of annotated maps, images and diagrams, assist in explaining key concepts in geological terminology to the reader". "The volume has highly benefited in the incorporation of data obtained from the Geological Survey of India, Indian Space Research Organization and Survey of India. Never before has such a collection from different sources on this scale of India's diverse landforms been assembled and presented in such a user friendly manner. The aim of this publication is to stimulate interest in landforms in general, and those of India in particular and it is designed to be a learning tool for students, teachers and the curious among the public".
