Tectonics of the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau and Its Adjacent Foreland 1-1-001-323-4330-323 and the hypothesis of anAuthors: B. Clark Burchfiel and Chen Zhiliang This volume provides a summary of the geology of eastern and southeastern Tibet and its foreland. It covers an area of approximately 1. 5 million km2 in 15 chapters on tectonic units that the authors recognized during 25 years of both field and laboratory study. Each chapter discusses the authors' understanding of the geology and offers interpretations of special geological relations, both local and
