The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is formed from a complex of small terranes accereted together. Linear outcrops of dismembered ophiolote suite that mark the position of ancient oceanic tracts define the boundaries between these terrenes. The book, as a summary of plenty of new data and research results collected and achieved by the author and other geology scholars both in China and the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is formed from a complex of small terrenes accreted together. The abroad, will present a lot of evidences concerning the origin and chronology of successive collisions of continental fragments with Eurasian or Gondwanian provenance and discuss the Mechanism by which the plateau evolved and the crust was doubled in thickness.
