Book Facts and Fossils  Adduced to Prove the Deluge of Noah  and Modify the Transmutation System of Darwin

Download or read book Facts and Fossils Adduced to Prove the Deluge of Noah and Modify the Transmutation System of Darwin written by Major General George Twemlow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facts and Fossils, Adduced to Prove the Deluge of Noah, and Modify the Transmutation System of Darwin: With Some Notices Regarding Indus Flint Cores The author of this humble attempt to restore belief in the Scriptural Deluge, accidentally picked up (in the year 1810) some chalk fossils, which then gave him the impression that the upheaved chalk Downs must be part of the "garment" of the earth renewed at the Deluge. The original impression constantly increased, and he now offers the result of his researches on this subject during a period of more than half a century, much regretting that they militate against the recorded opinions of many eminent men he respects; but he is himself upheld by conscious rectitude of purpose, feeling that he has closely followed Scriptural narration in the description of the great Flood; to him at least firm belief in the Deluge of Noah is requisite for belief in the Bible. The reader is particularly requested, before perusal of this brochure, to turn to page 39, and correct the mistakes of the eleventh line from the top, so that it may read as follows: - "times, cognizant of the Metonic cycle; That of six;" a few less important misprints may be corrected when observed; such as slags, printed instead of snags; "mastricating" instead of masticating; "metaphoric" (at page 116) should have been metamorphic; and No.8, plate vii, the word "carbonate" should have been sulphate; at page 30, (second line) "fifth" should be sixth; and at page 163, Baron Cuvier has his name unintentionally misspelt. The third (concluding) volume will be reserved for replies to those who persist in advocating a partial Deluge, and for further proofs and specimens tending to support the Biblical Deluge in its integrity. "The Flint Cores allued to, were described and delineated in vol. III., No.x., of the Geological Magazine for October, 1866, page 423."

Book Darwin s Lost World

Download or read book Darwin s Lost World written by Martin Brasier and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-03-11 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Darwin made a powerful argument for evolution in the Origin of Species, based on all the evidence available to him. But a few things puzzled him. One was how inheritance works - he did not know about genes. This book concerns another of Darwin's Dilemmas, and the efforts of modern palaeontologists to solve it. What puzzled Darwin is that the most very ancient rocks, before the Cambrian, seemed to be barren, when he would expect them to be teeming with life. Darwin speculated that this was probably because the fossils had not been found yet. Decades of work by modern palaeontologists have indeed brought us amazing fossils from far beyond the Cambrian, from the depths of the Precambrian, so life was certainly around. Yet the fossils are enigmatic, and something does seem to happen around the Cambrian to speed up evolution drastically and produce many of the early forms of animals we know today. In this book, Martin Brasier, a leading palaeontologist working on early life, takes us into the deep, dark ages of the Precambrian to explore Darwin's Lost World. Decoding the evidence in these ancient rocks, piecing together the puzzle of what happened over 540 million years ago to drive what is known as the Cambrian Explosion, is very difficult. The world was vastly different then from the one we know now, and we are in terrain with few familiar landmarks. Brasier is a master storyteller, and combines the account of what we now know of the strange creatures of these ancient times with engaging and amusing anecdotes from his expeditions to Siberia, Outer Mongolia, Barbuda, and other places, giving a vivid impression of the people, places, and challenges involved in such work. He ends by presenting his own take on the Cambrian Explosion, based on the picture emerging from this very active field of research. A vital clue involves worms - burrowing worms are one of the key signs of the start of the Cambrian. This is fitting: Darwin was inordinately fond of worms.
