Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Introduction to Geology In the present volume an attempt is made to explain the scope and methods of Geology, without taxing the reader´s memory with excess of detail, and avoiding so far as possible the use of technical terms. It is hoped that it may be found useful to those general readers who wish to obtain some idea of the science but do not desire to pursue its study far, but especially as an introduction for those who will subsequently proceed to the perusal of more advanced treatises. I am indebted to several friends for the use of photographs reproduced in the work. The figure of the pot-hole facing p. 39 is from a photograph by Mr Welch, of Belfast; the photograph of the glacier facing p. 51 was supplied by Prof. E. J. Garwood; that of the ice-worn rocks and perched stones by Prof. S. H. Reynolds; and that of the old Triassic landscape facing p. 174 was taken by Prof. H. E. Armstrong, F.R.S., and the print supplied by Prof. W. W. Watts, F.R.S. The photographs of the fossils and of the flint implements were kindly taken by W. G. Fearnsides, M.A., Fellow of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge. I have also to thank R. H. Rastall, B.A., of Christ´s College, Cambridge, for reading through the proofs.
