They were intended both for students of geology andf for others who, while not having made a special study of the earth, are interested in its history and in theories respecting its origin and the possible causes of volcanic activity at or near its surface." 8 Chapters: The Phenomena of Volcanism; Nebular Hypotheses; Physical Characteristics of the Earth; Petrology of the Earth; Dynamical Status of the Earth; Extravasation of Molten Magma; Intrusion of Igneous Magmas within the Lithosphere; Extrusion of Lavas upon the Earth's Surface. 83 black-and-white illustrations (many full-page) with accompanying descriptive captions and a color fold-out of Oro-Bathygraphical Chart map of the World.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the history of scientific theories and hypotheses regarding the enigmatic force of volcanism. Beginning with early, seminal attempts to explain its origins, such as the nebular hypotheses of Buffon, Kant, and Laplace, the author traces the evolution of our understanding of volcanism through the development of geology, chemistry, and astronomy. The book explores how volcanism relates to the broader themes of the Earth's formation, its geological and chemical composition, and its place within the solar system. Delving into the complexities of volcanic activity, the author explores the physical characteristics of volcanic eruptions, the mechanisms that drive them, and the role gases and heat play in their formation. Throughout, the book contextualizes volcanism within the larger historical framework of Earth sciences, highlighting the dynamic nature of scientific knowledge and the ongoing quest to unravel the intricate workings of our planet. 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.…
