Metamorphic geology : microscale to mountain belts

Mountain belts are the loci of crustal growth, reworking and recycling. Such planetary-scale processes can be unravelled through microscale investigations of textures and mineral assemblages of metamorphic rocks. This volume provides an overview of the state of the art of the research and also inclu...
