Summary Volcanism and tectonism are the dominant endogenic means by which planetary surfaces change. This book encompasses the broad range in character of volcanism, tectonism, faulting and associated interactions observed on planetary bodies across the inner solar system. The diversity and breadth of landforms produced by volcanic and tectonic processes is enormous, and varies across the inner solar system bodies. The selection of prevailing landforms & their underlying formational processes that are described and highlighted are thus but a primer to the expansive field of planetary volcanism and tectonism.
