Elements Of Geology - Charles Lyell - Bog

Elements of Geology: Or The Ancient Changes of the Earth and Its Inhabitants as Illustrated by Geological Monuments is a book written by Charles Lyell and published in 1866. This book is a comprehensive study of the geological history of the Earth and its inhabitants, as seen through the lens of geological monuments. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the formation of mountains, the history of the Earth's climate, the evolution of life on Earth, and the impact of geological processes on human civilization. Lyell's work is considered a landmark in the history of geology, as it helped to establish the principles of uniformitarianism, which holds that the same geological processes that operate today have been operating throughout the Earth's history. This book is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of the Earth and its inhabitants, as well as for students and professionals in the fields of geology, paleontology, and environmental science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
