Abstract
|
:
|
"The Origin of Mountains describes mountains from all over the world, emphasising their landforms, their rocks, and their structure and age. This leads to a deduction on the mechanism that formed them, causing the authors to reject the preconceived well-known hypothesis that plate tectonics and folding creates mountains."--Jacket.
