Earth Time: Exploring the Deep Past from Victorian England to the Grand Canyon Paperback - 2005 - 1st Edition
by Douglas Palmer (Editor)
From the rear cover
The story of the Earth is one that has developed far beyond the traditional Biblical view of events, to the realm of high science and complex analysis. But still questions remain about the age and structure of the earth.
Expert geologist Douglas Palmer examines the extraordinary story of mankind� s quest to uncover the history of the Earth and introduces us to the host of eccentric characters that have paved the way to our current understanding. The Earth� s rocks have divulged startling information about a 4.54 billion year history filled with earthquakes, floods, asteroid collisions and stark climate changes, but the route to enlightenment has been far from straightforward and many questions remain unanswered.
