THE PRINCIPLES OF STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY IBD

Sinopsis

'The Principles of Stratigraphical Geology' by John Edward Marr, first published in 1898, offers a detailed exploration of the principles governing the study of stratified rocks. This foundational text elucidates the methods used to understand the Earth?s history through its rock layers, covering topics such as the formation, classification, and correlation of strata. Marr?s work emphasizes the importance of fossils in determining the age and sequence of rock formations, providing insights into the evolution of life and the changing environments of the past. A cornerstone of geological literature, this book remains valuable for students and researchers interested in the historical development of stratigraphy and its continuing relevance to modern geological studies. It provides a solid grounding in the methodologies used to unravel the complexities of the Earth?s past, making it an essential addition to any geological library.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
