The earth is seen as a dynamic body undergoing convection that is driven by its internal heat. The elucidation of the nature and evolution of the earth's lithosphere, that has provided all minerals and energy resources and the space in which we live is one of the principal motives behind the International Program "Dynamics and Evolution of the Lithosphere". A full understanding of the lithosphere requires further research especially on the continents and their margins: while the oceanic lithosphere cools and subsides as it flows away from the zone of upwelling, the continents, because of their different composition, remain buoyant ...

Reviews for Crustal Structure of the Bohemian Massif and the West Carpathians
"The main value of this book lies in its presentation of a very large and comprehensive dataset, making it a valuable addition to the bookshelves of all those working on lithospheric properties and structure in general, and the geodynamics of Central Europe in particular." - Geological Magazine
