Chapter1. Introduction -- Chapter2. Evolving Early Earth: Insights from Peninsular India -- Chapter3. Tracking India within Precambrian supercontinent cycles -- Chapter4. Proterozoic Sedimentary basins of India -- Chapter5. Oxygenation of early atmosphere and potential stratigraphic records from India -- Chapter6. Early life from the Proterozoic sedimentary basins of India -- Chapter7. Geodynamics of Gondwanaland -- Chapter8. Cretaceous Volcanism in Peninsular India: Rajmahal_Sylhet, Deccan Traps -- Chapter9. Phanerozoic Mass Extinctions and Indian Stratigraphic Records -- Chapter10. Geological Evolution of the Himalayan Mountains -- Chapter11. Cenozoic Himalayan foreland basin: an overview and regional perspective of the evolving sedimentary succession -- Chapter12. Active tectonics of Himalayan frontal fault zone in the Sub Himalaya -- Chapter13. Late Quaternary evolution and morphostratigraphic development of the Ganga Plains -- Chapter14. Evolution and development of the Indian Monsoon -- Chapter15. Climate Change over the Indian sub-continent.

This book provides insights on new geological, tectonic, and climatic developments in India through a time progression from the Archean to the Anthropocene that are captured via authoritative entries from experts in earth sciences. This volume aims to bring graduate students and researchers up to date on the geodynamic evolution of the Indian Plate; concepts that have so far resulted in a rather uneven treatment of the subject at different institutions. The book is divided into 4 sections and includes perspectives such as the formation and evolution of the Indian crust in comparison to its neighbors such as Antarctica, Africa and Australia; the evolution of Precambrian cratons and sedimentary basins of India; and a summary account of early life reported in the Indian stratigraphic record. Readers will also discover the key recent research into the neotectonics, tectonic geomorphology, and paleoseismology of the Himalayan Front. Researchers and students in geology, earth sciences, sedimentology, paleobiology and geography will find this book appealing.
