Book excerpt: There has been a great upsurge in the teaching and practice of Geology in India during the last few decades mainly because of development of mineral and petroleum industries. Soon after Independence, there were few universities teaching this subject, but thereafter, there has been an upsurge and now there are geology departments in most universities, and their numbers are growing. There is, however, a great dearth of Indian text and reference books. This work is designed as a much-needed aid to students, teachers and professionals alike. Like any modern science, the science of Geology has its own nomenclature and terminology.
