Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology, Vol. 2 of 2: Chemical, Physical, and Stratigraphical In order to follow the descriptive portions of the work relating to foreign geology, it was essential to have a Geological Map of Europe. On submitting my views to Mr. Wm. Topley, he very kindly undertook to carry them out in conjunction with Mr. T. G. Goodchild, one of his colleagues on the Geological Survey of Great Britain. My part has been confined merely to the general plan and the introduction of the Volcanoes. The reduction of the Map from the several Home and Foreign Surveys has been entirely the work of the above-named gentlemen, assisted by Mr. Herbert Goodchild 1. I have only to express my entire satisfaction with the Map, - a satisfaction which may, I trust, be shared by my readers. The topographical details are the work of Messrs. W. And A. Keith Johnston, of Edinburgh. The colours adopted resemble for the most part those proposed by the International Geological Congress, with the exception of the Trias, Permian, and siluro-cambrian, for which we have retained the tints more familiar to English Geologists.

This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology Chemical, Physical, and Stratigraphical, Vol. 1 of 2 I have likewise largely made use of the publications of the Geological Survey, especially the Horizontal Sections, to illustrate various geological features, as it is a matter of importance to the student that a section should be drawn, so far as possible, in its exact relative proportions, and on a true scale of depth and distance. I have therefore taken, wherever practicable, in illustration of the superposition and dimensions of the strata and of the throw of faults, the Survey's Sections, which are made to a true scale of six inches to the mile, both for distance and depth. When the size of the page has not allowed of the introduction of a section on this scale, the figure is reduced, but the proportions are kept, and the fractional size given. There is the further advantage in having illustra tions which explain some actual and known ground. By the kind permission of the Radcliffe Librarian, Sir Henry W. Acland, I have had the opportunity of having reduced sketches made from drawings in the University Museum, many of which belonged originally to our eminent geologist, Dr. Buckland. In passing the proofs through the press I have had the advantage of the assistance and criticisms of Professor T. Rupert Jones. This volume has been so long in hand, that many valuable publica tions which I should have been glad to profit by have appeared since much of it was in print. I have been able to refer to a few in notes, but I have to regret the omission of others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology Chemical, Physical, and Stratigraphical, Vol. 1 of 2 So many excellent elementary works on Geology have been published during the last few years, that any new work on the subject might be thought unnecessary. In a science like Geology, however, where facts have to be recorded and hypotheses put forward, although textbooks must record the same facts and describe the same phenomena, the interpretation of them is, in many cases, open to such different constructions (each necessarily bearing the stamp of the author's own particular views), that, with a common framework, there may be great diversity of treatment and of opinion on the theoretical questions involved. For example, the fundamental question of time and force has given rise to two schools, one of which adopts uniformity of action in all time, - while the other considers that the physical forces were more active and energetic in geological periods than at present. On the Continent and in America the latter view prevails, but in this country the theory of uniformity has been more generally held and taught. To this theory I have always seen very grave objections; so when asked by the Delegates of the Press, soon after my appointment here in 1874, to undertake a work of this description, however much I might have hesitated under other circumstances, I felt I should be supplying a want by placing before the student the views of a school which, until of late, has hardly had its exponent in English text-books. The eloquence and ability with which Uniformitarianism has been advocated, furthered by the palpable objections to the extreme views held by some eminent geologists of the other school, led in England to its very wide acceptance. But it must be borne in mind that uniformitarian doctrines have probably been carried further by his followers than by their distinguished advocate, Sir Charles Lyell, and also that the doctrine of Non-uniformity must not be confounded with a blind reliance on catastrophes; nor does it, as might be supposed from the tone of some of its opponents, involve any questions respecting uniformity of law, but only those respecting uniformity of action.
