What is the important geologic information recorded in Thrust Belts and Foreland Basins (TBFB) on the evolution of orogens? How do they transcript the coupled influence of deep and surficial geological processes? Is it still worth looking for hydrocarbons in foothills areas? These and other questions are addressed in the volume edited by Lacombe, Lavé, Roure and Verges, which constitutes the Proceedings of the first meeting of the new ILP task force on ""Sedimentary Basins,"" held in December 2005 at the Institut Français du Pétrole, on behalf of the Société Géologique de France.

"In the framework of a new cycle of workshops of the ILP task force on 'Sedimentary Basins', a three-day meeting on 'Thrust Belts and Foreland Basins" was organized in December 2005 on behalf of the Société Géologique de France and the Sociedad Geológica de España., hosted by the Institut Français du Pétrole near Paris." -- Preface.
