Errata:

•Page 3, Fig 1.2 has an error in the stratigraphic key: "Tertiary" should be "Triassic".
•Page 22, Fig. 2.1 has an error in the upper left part: the coordinate (1,0) should be (1.4,0).
•Page 23, Fig. 2.2e coordinate (1,3) should be (3,1).
•Page 35: Remove "1+" in the lower right entry of the matrix in Equation 2.12. Also remove the "1+" in Equation 2.13.
•Page 39: Eq. 2.23: Add dot to S, as in eq. 2.22.
•Page 71: "... the angle between the stress vector and THE NORMAL TO the surface in question"
•Page 75, caption to Fig. 4.6: 2nd sentence should read: "Theta is the angle between the largest stress and the NORMAL TO a given plane.
•Page 82, last line of first paragraph: "σ3 will try to orient itself PERPENDICULAR to the weak structure."
•Page 111, left coloumn: "Since laboratory strain rates must be considerably HIGHER than natural strain rates"
•Page 111, right coloumn: Change 2nd sentence to: "Because of the increasing solubility of many silicates with increasing pressure, the effect is pressure dependent."
•Page 114 Fig 6.17:" 4" and "5" have been switched in the figure.
•Page 124 Fig 7.6: Mode IV should not show any sliding displacement.

Mode4
•Page 136, Fig. 7.26: Replace σ1 with σ3 (both in the caption and on the figure itself).
•Page 179, Fig 8.45: "t" missing in text "Fault surface".
•Page 224, Fig 11.9: I think I want to change the field of isoclinal folds to 10–0°, and accordingly tight to 70–10°.
•Page 228, 6th line after Equation 11.2: Change "-amplitude" to "-wavelength".
•Page 231, 6th and 3rd last lines of the page: Add "Figure" in front of 19.5a) and 19.21.
•Page 250, 4th line: Change (X) to (Z).
•Page 289, Fig 15.4: Rename "Dilational shear zones" "Dilational simple shear zones".
•Page 307, 1st column, end of 4th line: "plastic–brittle", not "plastic–ductile".
•Page 315 bottom of 1st column: Change to: “The horses typically have an S- (or Z-) shaped geometry…”
•Page 317, Fig. 16.9 caption: “… toward the right …” (not left).
•Page 318, Fig 16.14: Change "Insubrick line" to "Insubric line" (in the figure itself).
•Page 339, Fig. 17.8g: Reverse the arrow showing younging direction (faults get younger to the left).
•Page 240, bulleted points no. 6 and 7: Replace "higher-order" with "lower-order".
•Page 440, definition of "Overlap zone": in the second line, replace "overlapping folds" with "overlapping faults".
•Page 447 top: Change to "Strain ellipsoid: The ellipsoid ..." and 3rd line: "three principal axes" (not two).
