Excerpt from Discussions on Climate and Cosmology
There are many of the topics discussed which I could have wished to consider more at length, but advancing years and declining health constrain me to husband my remaining energies for work in a wholly different field of inquiry - work which has never lost for me its fascination, but which has been laid aside for upwards of a quarter of a century.

The great mystery of nineteenth-century geology was the cause of the ice ages. Originally published in 1885, this multi-disciplinary investigation of glacial geology and botany uses data from around the world to venture a new theory, and to question some of the most important ideas of contemporary physics.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth examination of the physical causes for the recurring changes in climate the Earth has experienced over geological timescales. The author puts forth a theory to explain the cause of the planet's recurrent ice ages as well as periods of temperate climates, and offers evidence to support this theory. The author argues that the distribution of land and water, as well as the Earth's position in relation to the sun, play key roles in driving changes in the planet's climate.
