Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the proceedings of the Fourth International Geological Congress, held in 1888. This gathering of international geological experts took place against a background of major advances in the Earth sciences and sought to reconcile them with new research in other academic fields. The Congress's objective was to establish international standards in the burgeoning profession of geology, with major sections of the book covering nomenclature and classification as well as overviews of current work in the field, including explosive volcanoes and earthquake hazards. The proceedings encompass discussions of the current understanding of particular periods of the Earth's history and paleontological specimens discovered to that point, along with debates over geological phenomena such as glacial deposits and the origin of igneous rocks. By presenting the work of multiple researchers in a single volume, this book provides a unique glimpse into some of the key intellectual currents and boundaries of geological research as it stood on the cusp of the 20th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781390394184_0
