Author: C.C. Albritton Jr.
This book is composed of a series of sixteen original analyses which review the history of the science of geology, evaluate its present status, and give direction to the future study of the subject. It has been written in response to a long-felt need for an authoritative guide for anyone interested in the study of geology. Publication of this book was timed to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the Geological Society of America. In fact, the articles in the book were written expressly for this event as a contribution to the scientific literature. The material has been carefully edited by Dean Claude Albritton to maintain the continuity of style and content. A selective and annotated bibliography, also by Dean Albritton, is contained at the end of the book. Geologists, philosophers of science, and anyone interested in the study of the earth will find this book of interest and value.
