Neville Price

Major Impacts and Plate Tectonics (eBook, ePUB)

A Model for the Phanerzoic Evolution of the Earth's Lithosphere

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Neville Price presents a major breakthrough in our understanding of the subject of plate tectonics in this new book. In this ambitious look at the importance of impacts of objects from space on the earth, he challenges the fundamentals of the theory on which geoscience has rested for the past 25 years. In the latter half of the 20th century
