Synopsis

The history of science attracts conflicting groups: scientists interested in the development of their discipline, and historians fascinated by the milieu of past science. To satisfy both groups, chapters have been reviewed by subject specialists and historians of science. Fourteen chapters range through Karakoram geomorphology viewed as "socially constructed" knowledge; studies in 18th-century France; the history of Polish geomorphology; the influence of James Hutton; and a perspective on 20th-century geomorpholgy. There is a tribute to John Hack (USGS) and an epilogue by Mort T.Greene, an historian of geology.
