这项工作回顾了英国和爱尔兰寒武纪与当前（尽管不完整）寒武纪国际标准的相关性。自1972年的早期版本以来，寒武纪系统的基底和上限已在国际上达成一致;因此，该帐户不包括Tremadocian岩石，但包括一些以前被认为是新元古代。有一半的系列和阶段划分是国际公认的，但对于寒武纪的未定义划分，这里使用的标准使用了阿瓦隆继承的数据。
自从第一版出版以来，不列颠群岛寒武纪的几乎每一个方面都受到了新的研究。本文回顾了不列颠群岛的板块构造组成，总结了新的放射性年龄和同位素研究，并通过疑源类的研究，特别是在爱尔兰的继承中，加强了生物地层学
This work reviews the correlation of the British and Irish Cambrian with the current (though incomplete) international standard for the Cambrian. Since the earlier edition of 1972, the basal and upper limits of the Cambrian system has been internationally agreed; so this account excludes Tremadocian rocks but includes some that were formerly considered Neoproerozoic. Half of the series and stage subdivisions are internationally agreed, but for the undefined divisions of the Cambrian the standard used here makes use of data from Avalonian successions.
Since the first edition was published, almost every aspect of the Cambrian I the British Isles has been subjected to new study. Here, the plate tectonic make-up of the British Isles is reviewed, new radiometric ages and isotopic studies are summarized and the biostratigraphy is enhanced by the study of acritarchs, especially in the Irish successions
