Description

Discover how plate tectonics revolutionised our understanding of Earth in this comprehensive history from CRC Press. Written as an insider's account, this book traces the development of one of science's most transformative theories from its emergence in the late 1960s to its present-day status as fundamental to earth science. Explore the pivotal research, data collection methods, and analytical breakthroughs that established plate tectonics as the cornerstone of modern geology. This essential read explains how a concept barely thirty-five years old became embedded in scientific thought and public understanding alike, reshaping how we view planetary processes, continental drift, and Earth's dynamic surface. Part of the Frontiers in Physics series, it bridges historical narrative with scientific rigour, making complex geological concepts accessible to students, educators, and anyone curious about how Earth actually works.

Key Features

CRC Press publishes this authoritative insider's account of plate tectonics theory development during the late 1960s.

The Frontiers in Physics series positions this book within peer-reviewed academic literature for earth sciences education.

The book covers research methodologies and data collection practices that established plate tectonics as fundamental science.
