Geological Evolution of South-East Asia

---

Geological Evolution of South-East Asia by Charles S. Hutchison provides a comprehensive synthesis of the tectonic history, stratigraphy, and geological development of the Southeast Asian region, integrating field observations with plate tectonic theory. The book examines major geological features such as Late Mesozoic and Cenozoic tectonic regimes, sedimentary basins, ophiolites, sutures, volcanic arcs, and plutonic rock distributions, tracing the drifting of microcontinents and their eventual collision to form present-day Southeast Asia. Emphasizing both regional field evidence and broader geodynamic processes, Hutchison’s work remains an essential reference for understanding the complex geological evolution of this tectonically active area extending from Tibet through the Malay Peninsula into the Indonesian archipelago
