現貨供應 ISBN: 9781774690086　Year: 2025 　Price: US$ 175.00
Author: Sheila Rai
A b s t r a c t


After the collapse of Soviet Union and its Marxist-Leninist economic and political model of development the Washington consensus inspired model of economic and political development popularly known as Globalization became the new mantra , the panacea to cure all societal ills, and the only option to raise global humanity from poverty, ill health, and political oppression. There is no doubt that it lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty, however its many gains were not equally or even near equally distributed. Economic inequality, human rights suffered specially in China and several countries in Eastern Europe, environmental degradation, unemployment , unregulated and unbridled dominance by multinationals (mostly Western , Americans ) brought about unprecedented economic crisis and social fragmentation. These developments raised serious doubts and questions about the viability of globalization model. The "discontent with globalization" forced academics and policymakers to reevaluate other alternatives. The present anthology discusses some of these issues in a comparative context by presenting alternative models to Western unregulated free market Globalization model.

A Revised Correlation of the Cretaceous Rocks of the British Isles.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9781786206862　Year: 2025 　Price: GBP 50
Author: A.S. Gale
A b s t r a c t


Study of the Cretaceous rocks of the British Isles has a long history, extending back into the early nineteenth century, and British successions have been internationally important in the development of biostratigraphical and chemostratigraphical schemes. The book incorporates modern techniques (e. g. magnetostratigraphy and chemostratigraphy, marker bed stratigraphy) with bio- and lithostratigraphical frameworks in order to establish a detailed correlation, stage by stage, for the onshore Cretaceous succession. The study is aided by the recent establishment and ratification of international stage boundaries (Global boundary Standard Sections and Points) which are identified, some provisionally, in the British succession; all 12 Cretaceous stages are recognized, and the offshore succession is also summarized. Finally, the volume suggests possible future directions for research on Cretaceous rocks in order both to fill in significant gaps in knowledge and to progress understanding of the stratigraphy and correlation.

Cretaceous Project 200, Volume 2: Regional Studies.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9781786206107　Year: 2025 　Price: GBP 200
Author: M.B. Hart
A b s t r a c t


The Cretaceous was first mentioned in the legend of a geological map, largely centred on France, published in 1822 by Jean Baptiste Julien d’Omalius d’Halloy. Two hundred years of research have demonstrated that the Cretaceous records some of the highest sea levels, atmospheric temperatures and extreme events in Earth history. It was also a time of significant palaeogeographical changes and continental fragmentation. This volume draws together a collection of papers from an exceptionally wide geographical area that reflects the varied geological features of Cretaceous strata and the enclosed faunas and floras. There are geological accounts of areas from the Arctic to the Antarctic Peninsula, onshore and offshore environments, as well as some terrestrial environments with newly described floras and faunas. The application of stable isotope geochemistry to stratigraphical problems, and the identification of cyclostratigraphy, features quite prominently in many of the areas described.

Sedimentary Dynamics in the Albertine Rift Valley, Equatorial East Africa.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9781786206879　Year: 2025 　Price: GBP 130
Author: C.J. Nicholas
A b s t r a c t


The Albertine Rift Valley forms the northern sector of the Western Arm of the East African Rift System (EARS) and is one of the best examples of active early continental rifting in the world today. This Memoir draws together a variety of topics, or themes, ranging from structural geomorphology, to hot springs with their associated tufa-travertines, modern-day sedimentary depositional environments and examples in rift-fill outcrop, to ways of establishing a chronostratigraphic framework that correlates with global glacial–interglacial climatic cyclicity since the Pliocene. It is based on a series of original geological field surveys, undertaken for petroleum exploration companies and Government agencies over an eight-year period. These surveys, until now, have remained piecemeal views of the Lake Edward and Lake Albert basins, but here they are drawn together to provide a holistic narrative for the first time.

Alkaline Rocks: Economic and Geodynamic Significance through Geological Time.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9781786206275　Year: 2025 　Price: GBP 145
Author: R. Pandey
A b s t r a c t


Alkaline igneous rocks have a relative excess of alkalis over silica. Most are silica-undersaturated and contain normative nepheline and primary feldspathoids. Although alkaline rocks are very rare, their diverse mineralogical and chemical composition accounts for a plethora of igneous rock names. They are recorded in continental, post-collisional and island-arc settings, as well as along rift zones.

Alkaline rocks commonly include a wide variety of rocks, including alkali basalts, tephrites, phonolites, trachytes and their intrusive equivalents, lamprophyres, and carbonatites. Their study significantly contributes to the interpretation of mantle evolution and geodynamic settings of ancient terranes. Additionally, alkaline rocks may host important precious- and rare-metal mineralization.
