The 16 papers in this volume address questions of whether the normal faulting, high heat flow, thin lithosphere, and low Pn-velocities in the Great Basin are products of an externally driven rapid extension or whether they are accompaniments of a broad arching of the local continental lithosphere, the formation of a triple junction, or back-arc spreading.
