Geological magazine : Vol. 85 Iss. 1-6 Year. 1948Summary: Among the most controversial problems of British geology are those concerning the metamorphic rocks which make up the greater part of the Scottish Highlands. The writer, in common with many geologists whose work has brought them into contact with the region, has long felt that the discussion and solution of these problems would be greatly facilitated by a nomenclature less involved and more consistent than that at present in use. A simplified nomenclature, moreover, would do much to stimulate and hold the attention of students and general readers.
