Physics of the Earth's Crust

Abstract

MR. FISHER is well known to geologists as the writer of various important papers on Mountain Chains, Terrestrial Heat, and other physical phenomena of the earth. He has in this volume not merely collected these papers, but added so much new matter that they form only a small part of the book. It deals with those-regions whither we cannot penetrate, and might be called a Treatise on Concealed Geology.

Physics of the Earth's Crust.

By the Rev. Osmond Fisher (London: Macmillan and Co., 1881.)
