From the Back Cover
The Fennoscandian Shield covers more than a million square kilometers of northern Europe in Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. THe bedrock of Finland records over three billion years of Earth history and has been the bubject of intensive geological mapping and research since the 19th century. The region has also been the birthplace of important concepts and developments in metamorphic and ingeous petrology. Modern geological and geophysical research, building on a foundation of decades of mapping, has led to a completely revised understanding of the geology of Finland. This book provides detailed petrological, lithological, and structural syntheses and interpretations of the Archean and Proerozic of Finland and will be of value to anyone interested in the evolution of the Fennoscadian Shield in particular and in Precambrian geology in general.
