Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Text-Book of Geology, Vol. 1: For Use in Universities Colleges, Schools of Science, Etc;, And for the General Reader A new edition of a textbook, especially in a scientific subject like Geology, in which fresh material is constantly appearing, demands no particular explanation. The plan and scope of the work remains unchanged, and in the revision and the addition of new matter in many places the effort has been made to keep the length of the work essentially the same. The author is indebted to various friends and correspondents for corrections, helpful criticisms, and suggestions for betterments, to whom he desires to extend his thanks and appreciation for the interest they have shown and the pains they have taken in the matter. He would like to mention in this connection Mr. C.K. Needham, Dr. H.H. Robinson, who redrew several figures, and especially Prof. Douglas W.Johnson of Columbia University for many valued suggestions. In like manner his thanks are due also to his colleagues. Professor H.E. Gregory, Professor A.M. Bate man and the late Professor Joseph Barrell. Owing to illness, the revision of the proof has been kindly undertaken by Professor Schuchert and Miss ClaraMae Le Vene. L.V. Pirsson. Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University, New Haven, Conn., May, 1919. From The Preface To The First Edition For many years the author of this book has been called upon to give the first course in Physical Geology to large classes of students, among whom are to be found those pursuing courses leading to professional work in various branches of Engineering, Mining, Metallurgy, Forestry, Chemistry, etc., and in Geology itself, to whom therefore the subject has a direct technical value or serves as a basis for further technical studies. Naturally these students find a first general course in Physical Geology one of cultural interest as well.
