Abstract
THIS monograph on the climates of the past is A essentially a supplement to Prof. Wegener's work on continental drift. It endeavours to show that the former variations of climate can be best explained by Wegener's theory that all the land on the earth was originally one continuous continent which has been broken up, that the pieces have drifted apart, and that the north and south poles have migrated to their present positions.
