Paperback / softback. New. In the early 20th century American earth scientists vociferously opposed the radical notion of continental drift. Yet 50 years later the idea was heralded as a scientific breakthrough. This text explores why US geologists rejected so adamantly an idea now considered a cornerstone of the discipline.

ISBN10: 0195117336, ISBN13: 9780195117332, [publisher: Oxford University Press Inc, New York] Softcover Paperback. In the early twentieth century, American earth scientists were united in their opposition to the new--and highly radical--notion of continental drift, even going so far as to label the theory "unscientific." Some fifty years later, however, continental drift was heralded as a major scientific breakthrough and today it is accepted as scientific fact. Why did American geologists reject so adamantly an idea that is now considered a cornerstone of the discipline? Andwhy were their European colleagues receptive to it so much earlier? This book, based on extensive archival research on three continents, provides important new answers while giving the first detailedaccount of the American geological community in the first half of the century. Challenging previous historical work on this episode, Naomi Oreskes shows that continental drift was not rejected for the lack of a causal mechanism, but because it seemed to conflict with the basic standards of practice in American geology. This account provides a compelling look at how scientific ideas are made and unmade. In 1915, when Wegener proposed his theory of continental drift, American scientists considered it radical. British scientists viewed the theory as a confirmation. This book compares the different reactions, proposing that differing methodological commitments, rather than theoretical beliefs, pl ...
