Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology of Oxford and the Valley of the Thames The history of that part of the earth's surface now occupied by the Valley of the Thames, as treated in these pages, embraces the whole period of geological time from the Oldest rocks Of Malvern to the latest prehistoric alluvium. The mind perceives and contemplates a long succession of lands and seas much different from those we now behold, the beginning and ending of many systems of associated life and varying physical agencies, all of which have had a traceable influence on the present aspect of this midland region of England. After marking the main features Oof physical geography, and describing with the aid of maps and sections the systems of rocks in the order of time, the organic remains of each great group of strata are catalogued as fully as my own knowledge, combined with the valuable aids which are in each case thankfully acknow ledged, has enabled me to accomplish the difficult task.

This book was released on 2018-05-02 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology in Relation to the Studies of the University of Oxford IT has always appeared to me that there is a great deal of truth in an epigrammatic sentence which I once heard uttered, - that a well educated man ought to know something of everything and every thing of something. In other words, he ought to have a certain general acquaintance with the principles and outlines of all, or at least of a great many, branches of knowledge, and he ought also to select some one, or at most some few, subjects of study, of which he should endeavour to obtain the entire mas tery. Without the former, most of the ideas which circulate in general literature and general conversation, become to him a dead letter, as unsuggestive as the inscriptions of Assyria or Etruria; without the latter, he possesses no detailed or systematic knowledge to exercise his judicial or discursive powers. Both general and particular knowledge are necessary to complete the mental structure -the man who only knows something of everything is superficial, while lie who only knows everything of some thing is narrow-minded. So intense in some minds is the appetite for special knowledge, that they waste their energies in striving to master the entire details of every subject that comes before them, forgetting the shortness of life, and the limited powers of the human mind. Of such men it has been said that science is their forte, but omni science is their foible. It often demands no little judgment to make a wise selection of special subjects of study, and great self-denial in adhering steadily to them. The particular duties, talents, and tastes of each individual must be consulted. The subjects which have a practical bearing on his social and pro fessional duties must of course have the first claim for his selection. But there are few men who could not, if they would, spare with advantage a portion of their leisure from their daily employments, in order to refresh their minds with some more abstract subject of study, and nothing can more conduce to preserve the mens mm in corpore sano than such a change of intellectual occupation.
