Walking/Hiking Answers: The Layering System

Got an answer to the following question?

The Layering System

I am new to this walking lark having just put my mountain biking to bed after a knee operation.

I keep coming across the layering system for clothing but have not really found a website that fully explains it. I intend to walk in all weathers and all terrains. Could someone please enlighten me on the layering system.

Thank you.
