Tasmania, its landscape, rocks and tectonic structures is the most misunderstood and less celebrated aspect of the state. It is so unique geologically, as it is related more to Antarctic geology than it is to mainland Australia. "Created from Chaos" is a definitive book interpreting (in understandable terminology) 101 Tasmanian goelogical sites and places . . . as old as 1300 million year rocks on King Island to the most recent landslides in Launceston. Using basic explanations and definitions, photographic images of Chaos sites, rocks, structures, Permian and Tertiary fossils, the author shows how to acknowledge this 'special place' . . . the island of Tasmania. The geological 'trail' was designed by the author for easy access and viewing from roads or short walking tracks. The colume will be invaluable to educators, researchers, students, fossickers and the public and could provide a first point of reference for scientists investigating Tasmania's geology and geological history.
