Dave, Hey, Watch it! If I had been using a single source, I would have said so... and quoted from it. My data are from books, journals, lab reports, and other scientific reports from across more than 50 years. I have known specifically about the geology and marine biology of the Med basin and the general area for more than 35 years. During one delightful 3-year period I was fortunate to have translated or re-written the English of reports, and drawn many maps of both the coast and the bed of the Med for an Oceanographic Institute... and have always kept up with new material on the subjects.
Nobody can cover everything, so I don't know if the above book goes into the hauntingly familiar similarities between the formation of the mountain spurs that poke into the Dead Sea basin and the spurs at the undersea sills of the Med/Atlantic and Black Sea/Med interfaces...
