Geological and tectonic setting of the Lesser Antilles island arcs -- Stratigraphy and geological evolution of Dominica -- Faulting and uplift of Dominica -- The Plinian deposits of Dominica -- Seismo-thermal zones and a reassessment of volcanic hazards on Dominica -- Petrography -- Mineral chemistry -- Geochemistry of the volcanic rocks of Dominica -- A petrogenetic model for the geological evolution of Dominica -- A discussion of the geochemical and isotopic characteristics of Dominica in relation to the arcs of the Lesser Antilles. "Using results from geological mapping, detailed stratigraphy, mineral chemistry, and geochemistry, the authors have developed a model to explain characteristics of Dominica not seen on many island arcs worldwide. The model suggests that during the Pleistocene partial melting of the island-arc crust generated a single magma body of batholithic proportions beneath the island"-- cProvided by publisher.
