Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In this book, the author presents a new theory that the continents and mountains we know today are not the result of the Earth's cooling and collapsing. Instead, the author claims that they are the result of the sediment carried by ocean currents that circulated in elliptical paths around the globe. This circulation caused the sediment to accumulate in certain areas, which then sank under the weight of the deposits, creating depressions. The crust around these depressions was forced upward, forming continents. This theory explains the peculiar shapes and positions of the continents, as well as the fact that many mountain ranges run parallel to coastlines. The author also discusses the role of waves in creating mountains and the different ways in which mountain ranges can be formed. By challenging traditional theories and offering a new perspective on the origins of continents and mountains, this book provides a valuable contribution to the field of geology.
