Professor Vinod Kumar Singh is working on Precambrian geodynamics of Bundelkhand Craton and teaching at Bundelkhand University, Jhansi, India since November, 1999. He did Ph.D. in Geology from University of Delhi and worked on Structure and tectonics on Himalayan orogenic belts and worked on Plaeaomagnetism at Tubingen University, Germany as scientists and co-researcher with Prof. Erwin Appel in a collaborative project funded by German Research Council. He is working in collaboration with Institute of Geology, KRC, Petrozavodsk, Russia on geodynamic evolution of earth crust. Prof. Singh using integrated approach involving new and innovative methods, geological fields indeed represent both Archean/Proterozoic and Himalayan (and related) orogens, to understand the geodynamics of crustal evolution.He

"The articles presented in this edited volume are praise worthy and offers wide perspective on geodynamic, tectonics and petrogenesis aspects of the earth's crust and geo-environmental problems. ... the book has scholarly articles and would be beneficial to scientists, researchers, academicians, planners, and graduate and post-graduate students."
