Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive study of physical and stratigraphic geology, covering the structure and history of the Earth. It is distinguished by the division of labor between the authors, each of whom is solely responsible for one section. The author of the physical section has received assistance from several friends, to whom he expresses his acknowledgement, and the author of the stratigraphic section has also had valuable advice from Mr. Henry Woods. The book also contains original illustrations and some original maps, and its usefulness for teaching and studying is further enhanced by a comprehensive index. One significant aspect of this book is that it does not end with the geological past, but continues into the present day, discussing the impact of climate on weathering and denudation, and the history of igneous activity in the British Isles. 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.…
