Controversy in Victorian Geology: The Cambrian-Silurian Dispute
ISBN: 9780691605845 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 386 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Secord gives a dazzlingly detailed account of this scientific trench warfare and its social consequences. One ends up with a marvellous feeling for the major taxonomic enterprises in Darwin's younger day: mapping, ordering, conquering 'taming the chaos" of the strata.

Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand... Secord gives a dazzlingly detailed account of this scientific trench warfare and its social consequences.
