Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Geology: A d104-Book for Colleges and for the General Reader IN preparing this revision of my Elements of Geology, my endeavor has been, while retaining the general plan, to make such changes and additions as were rendered necessary by the rapid ad vance of geological science, especially in this country. In Part I. The most important changes are the addition of Croll's and Thomson's theories of glacier motion, and some modifications of statement concerning the origin of the Peninsula of Florida.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Geology: Treating of the Principles of the Science With Special Reference to American Geological History, for the Use of Colleges, Academies, and Schools of Science The Brief Synopsis of Appendix K. Is intended to facilitate the use of this Manual as a recitation-book. Lectures cannot well be wholly dispensed with in the instruction of Natural or Physical Science; but, with a work so full of illustrations as this, they may, with great advantage, be altogether subordinate to recitations, espe cially if the latter are accompanied with an exhibition of speci mens. Through the use of fine type for the details of the Science, the Manual is made to combine in one a small and a large book. The topics presented in the Synopsis are, with few exceptions, those of the former; and they are so prepared that each suggests a question. A cursory perusal of the details in the smaller type is, however, to be advised, as it will aid the student in acquiring precise ideas. Even in scientific schools it may be best that the student first go through the Manual with the Synopsis, and then, in a second course, take up the Palaeontology and Dynamics with greater thoroughness. Every Academy or other Institution teaching the Science should have, at least, a small collection of specimens. Even twenty-five dollars will purchase one (of Louis Seemann, Paris, 45 Rue St. Andre des-arts, or of Dr. A. Krantz, at Bonn on the Rhine) containing specimens of nearly all the mineral species mentioned in the Manual, and of the more common kinds of rocks, and another twenty-five dollars, a collection of fossils that would be of great service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Student's Manual of Geology The Author of this work had made some progress in the preparation of the present edition before the illness seized him by which he was removed from among us. Finding the task to be greater than, with his impaired health, he could accomplish, he asked me to relieve him of it; and I accord ingly undertook to prepare this re-issue. My labours, how ever, were unfortunately suspended for nearly a year in consequence of a fever caught among the volcanic islands of the Liparis. Hence the delay in the appearance of the work. The reader will observe, on comparing the present with former editions, that so many changes have been made that it may in some respects be regarded as a new book. A large mass of additional material has been added; but, by adopting a different mode of printing, this has been effected without adding to the bulk of the volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Geology, Vol. 1: For Use in Universities Colleges, Schools of Science, Etc;, And for the General Reader Geology is essentially an historical science in that it continually seeks to determine the origin of things and the changes which they have experienced. The documents upon which the history is based are written in the rocks of the earth itself and the forms Of its surface features; they present a series Of incontrovertible records, and, if we would read this history, it is our part to learn to decipher the records correctly. Much of this has been done, but much also remains to be done; it is the aim of this work to present a general account of what has been accomplished. Many writers define Geology as a history Of the earth and its inhabitants, as Shown by the record in the rocks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Geology: Treating of the Principles of the Science With Special Reference to American Geological History The author has endeavored to bring the volume into as small a. Compass as consistent with a proper exhibition of the science; and, if some find its pages too numerous, he feels confident that quite as many would prefer greater fullness. The details introduced have seemed to be necessary, in order that the march of events should be appreciated. At the same time, the work has been adapted to the general reader and literary student, by the printing of the scientific details in finer type. The convenience of a literary class has been further provided for by adding to the Appendix a brief synopsis of the part in coarser type, in which each head is made to present a subject, or question, for special attention. And, as many may not be familiar with the science of Zoology, a review of the classification of animals, with numerous figures, has been inserted as an introduction to the Historical part of the Manual.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elementary Course of Geology, Mineralogy, Physical Geography, Vol. 1 The First Edition of this work, published in 1850, having been, found adapted for a certain class of readers and students, the Author has been careful, in preparing a Second Edition, to adhere to those peculiarities of treatment in which it differs from other works hitherto published on Geology. He believes these to be first, its comprehensiveness, as including the elements of all departments of Geological science; secondly, its compactness, as bringing within a narrow space a great multi tude of facts important to be known; and thirdly, its method, as presenting those numerous facts in a convenient order. He is aware that these qualities are obtained at the sacrifice of a certain amount of popularity, and he can hardly h0pe to render very attractive to the general reader the accumulation of material which it has been his chief object not to dissipate. In preparing a new edition, he has shortened some parts of the work and considerably increased other parts, endeavouring to bring into a somewhat better proportion the various divisions of the subject. He has carefully modified the Mineralogy, retaining however in the main the former method of arrangement, which he believes to be the one best adapted for the Geological student; and he has greatly added to the list of synonyms, which now includes 1400 names.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Advanced Text-Book of Geology: Descriptive and Industrial Yet another word: The Author requests his brother geo legists who may glance over these pages to remember that they are not intended to contain an exposition of his own peculiar views, but rather to exhibit an elementary outline of the science as now established by the leading workers in Britain, France, Germany, and America. The main object has been to render the student such assistance as will enable him to proceed in the field as a practical observer, and to read with appreciation the higher treatises, special mono graphs, papers, and new discoveries of others. To further this object mention is made, at the end of each section, of the principal works devoted to the department in question to have done more would have been to enter on the field of speculative geology - a subject that lies beyond the scope of an Educational Text-book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geological Manual The Author has availed himself largely of the additions made by M. Von Dechen, with the assistance of the ce lebrated Von Buch and other German geologists, to the German translation of this Work, more particularly as respects the geology of Germany and the lists of or ganie remains. He has not been able to avail himself of any additions to the French translation of the Manual, made under the superintendence of M. Brochant de Vil liers, as it will not appear much before the present edition but the Author is informed that it will contain a further development, by M. Elie dc Beaumont, of his theory of the elevation of mountain chains, as also additions to the lists of organic remains. He has not seen a copy of the American edition of this Work, and is therefore not aware that any additions have been made to it. There can be little doubt that, from a strong desire to find similar organic remains in supposed equivalent de podts, even at great distances, and from an equally strong desire to discover new species, the same organic remains, particularly shells, often figure in our catalogues under two names, while difi'erent species are made to appear as one. Notwithstanding these difficulties, it will, how ever; be evident, from a glance of these catalogues, that a great mass of information has been gradually collected on this subject alone, from which the most important results must follow, even though the various lists may require very considerable correction.
