Book Overview

Transmuted Past follows the development of theories of stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis in the twentieth century and describes radiometric methods for estimating the age of the Earth. Professor Brush also offers perspectives on the changing reputation of planetary science relative to the pure sciences, such as physics, and a comparison of history and geology as ways of studying the past.
