Plates, Plumes, and Planetary Processes is a comprehensive volume edited by Gillian R. Foulger and Donna M. Jurdy, published in 2007 as part of the Geological Society of America’s Special Paper series (No. 430). Spanning 997 pages, this work delves into the ongoing scientific debate concerning the existence of mantle plumes and their role in hotspot volcanism on Earth and other planetary bodies like Mars and Venus.
