This book provides an in-depth geological and geodynamic analysis of the European Alps, detailing the Cenozoic magmatism, tectonic evolution, and sedimentary processes. It explores the relationship between magmatic events and geodynamic forces, the exhumation of crystalline massifs, and the development of surrounding sedimentary basins. The book is aimed at geologists and researchers in earth sciences, presenting comprehensive research findings and theoretical concepts for understanding orogenesis and sedimentation in the Alps.
