From Mineralogy to Geology: The Foundations of a Science, 1650-1830

by Rachel Laudan

Book Overview

"A fine treatment of this critical time in geology's history. Although it goes against our standard histories of the field, Laudan defends her views convincingly. Her style is direct, with carefully reasoned personal opinions and interpretations clearly defined."--Jere H. Lipps, The Scientist
