Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the birth of geology as a science, starting from an era rife with mere speculation. The author, an eminent geologist, traces the journeys and contributions of key early geologists, men who engaged in meticulous observation, accumulating an impressive body of data that laid the groundwork for the systematic study of the Earth's structure and history. The book focuses on the period between 1750 - 1850, discussing prominent themes of the day such as cosmological theories, the search for a Theory of the Earth, the quest to understand geological succession, the concept of uniformitarianism, and the rise of stratigraphical geology. The reader is introduced to the intellectual climate and debates that shaped early geological thought. These thinkers wrestled with the Earth's age, the processes that shaped its surface, the nature of fossils, and the history of life. The book concludes by highlighting how these early scientists overcame many obstacles to establish a new science, leaving an enduring legacy that continues to inform our understanding of the Earth today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330083567_0
