Editorial Reviews
Review
'This is undoubtedly a mature source book, which provides a wealth of information, clearly expressed in an annotated text with beautiful diagrams. The references are timely. Another nice feature is the nicely interpreted seismic lines. ... This professional book should be on the shelves of those interested in Spanish geology, and in the libraries of geology departments and exploration companies.' Christopher Kendall, The Leading Edge
'It undoubtedly provides the most extensive coverage of the Tertiary geology of Spain ... and is therefore essential reference material for anyone interested in the sedimentology, stratigraphy and tectonics of the region ... This book is a 'must'.' Gary Nichols, Geological Magazine

Book Description
During the Tertiary, Spain suffered compressional collision between France and Africa, and its Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts have been further modified by extensional rifting. Because it includes sectors of two separate foreland basins, and an intervening craton with basins that have been influenced by extensional and strikeSHslip deformation, Spain provides excellent material for the development and testing of theories on the study of sedimentary basin formation and filling. This book is one of the few studies available in English of the important Tertiary geology of Spain.
