This volume presents the findings of recent geologic investigations along the San Andreas and related faults. The authors of the 10 chapters critically examine the geologic evidence that constrains timing and magnitude of displacement on various faults of the San Andreas system and develop and discuss paleogeologic reconstructions based on these constraints. Similarities and differences among the various reconstructions, both in detail and in grand scheme, not only provide insight into the evolution of the San Andreas fault system, but also highlight areas of significant controversy in understanding that evolution.
