Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Condition: GOOD. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 353pp. + b/w plates. Sewn binding in burgundy simulated cloth. Pen underlining to a few pages, otherwise a clean, sound copy; DJ is a bit toned and edgeworn. An argument for a 'Young Earth' with a cataclysmic interpretation of the geological record by a noted metallurgist and explosives developer. 'If the earth is billions of years old, Prehistory and earth Models argues that all but the last few thousand years of scientifically readable prehistory has been erased perhaps by world-shaping catastrophes. The observed unbalance of radiocarbon, the abundance and influx of uranium in the oceans and helium in the atmosphere, the instability of paleomagnetism in the rocks, and reinterpreted systematic discrepancies in the radioactive 'time clocks' are among the substantiating arguments. 'Continental drift' is described as a recent catastrophic rupture of 'Pangĉa' and sudden shift of its fragments (continents) under the tremendous forces of polar ice caps. Crustal uplifts and depressions, shield-geosyncline-welt interrelationships, the nature and occurrence of coal, oil and fossils, overthrusting and stacking of strata, for instance, in the Canadian Rockies, and other geologic information substantiate this novel reconstruction of prehistory. Biological prehistory is discussed from the time implication and a central argument that spontaneous generation and 'organic' evolution go counter to 'time's arrow. Physics-chemistry, differentiation, adaptation and mutations vs. speciation and anomalous fossilization are among the topics considered.' (From the Dust Jacket) Since life feeds on negative entropy' it is implied that life is an amazing, unnatural, intricately engineered phenomenon.' (From the dust jacket). Seller Inventory # 513031
