Text-Book of Geology, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) by Archibald Geikie Pdf

Excerpt from Text-Book of Geology, Vol. 2 HE phenomena of hypogene action considered in the T foregoing pages relate almost wholly to the effects produced at the surface. It is evident, however, that these phenomena chie y arise from movements within or beneath the earth's crust, and must be accompanied by very considerable internal changes in the rocks which form that crust. These rocks, subjected to enormous pressure, have been contorted, crumpled, and folded back upon themselves, as if thousands of feet of solid limestones, sandstones, and shales had been merely a few layers of carpet; they have been shattered and fractured; they have in some places been pushed far above their original position, in others depressed far beneath it: so great has been the compression which they have undergone that their com ponent particles have in many places been rearranged, and even crystallized. They have here and there probably been reduced to actual fusion, and have been abundantly invaded by masses of molten rock from below.

A Textbook of Geology, Vol. 1 by Chester R. Longwell Pdf

Excerpt from A Textbook of Geology, Vol. 1: Physical Geology With this keynote in mind, the attempt is made throughout the book to keep to matters that have a direct bearing on geologic history. The authors consider it a mistake to use the limited space in an ele mentary text for the exposition of scientific matters not directly a part of geology, however interesting they may be in themselves. For this reason the discussion of weather, of which at best only a smattering can be given in a geologic text, has been abandoned. Similarly a detailed discussion of the mechanics of glacier motion, which has inherent inter est but is not essential to an understanding of land sculpture by glaciers, is dispensed with.

New Text-Book of Geology by James Dwight Dana Pdf

Excerpt from New d104-Book of Geology: Designed for Schools and Academies In preparing this d104-book of Geology, the general plan of my Manual has been retained. The science is not made a dry account of rocks and their fossils, but a history of the earth's continents, seas, strata, mountains, climates, and living races; and this history is illustrated, so far as the case admits, by means of American facts, without, however, overlooking those of other continents, and especially of Great Britain and Europe. In this Fourth Edition, fifty pages have been added to the size of the work, in order to render the explanations, simpler and more complete, and to give also a fuller account of the kinds of life which contribute to rock-making, of the geographical distribution of marine species, and of the depths of the seas. Each of these topics is illustrated by new cuts, and the last by a general map showing the depth of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by bathymetric lines, based mainly on that of Mr. H. N. Moseley, of the Challenger expedition. The map of the vicinity of Naples is from Murray's Handbook. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A Text-Book of Geology, Vol. 1 by Louis Valentine Pirsson Pdf

Excerpt from A d104-Book of Geology, Vol. 1: For Use in Universities Colleges, Schools of Science, Etc;, And for the General Reader Geology is essentially an historical science in that it continually seeks to determine the origin of things and the changes which they have experienced. The documents upon which the history is based are written in the rocks of the earth itself and the forms Of its surface features; they present a series Of incontrovertible records, and, if we would read this history, it is our part to learn to decipher the records correctly. Much of this has been done, but much also remains to be done; it is the aim of this work to present a general account of what has been accomplished. Many writers define Geology as a history Of the earth and its inhabitants, as Shown by the record in the rocks.
