The geological evolution of Grand Cayman, Little Cayman, and Cayman Brac is explored over the past 30 to 35 million years, detailing how carbonate sediment deposition and karst development were influenced by fluctuating sea levels and tectonic movements. The book highlights the significance of the islands' geological features in relation to current challenges, particularly the reliance on desalinization plants for drinking water, which are strategically positioned based on an understanding of the underlying bedrock.
