Harvard University Press 1996 First Edition Hardcover Fine jacket 410 pages. By the Australian geologist. A 'history from Antiquity to the present of ideas about the planet on which we live'--from the front flap. First edition (first printing). A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. From the Harvard office library of the paleontologist and leading advocate for evolution, Stephen Jay Gould, whose work is cited on several pages, and with Gould's pencil notes on the rear endpapers and minor marginalia on at least one page. With a posthumous tipped in bookplate indicating the provenance. *** Intellectually, Gould understood the true nature of these bookplates, but the book collector in him appreciated them. In his essay 'A Seahorse for All Races' Gould writes about one of his prized possessions, a book from Charles Dickens' library: 'Dickens made no annotations, but a bookplate on the cover, presumably inserted as a come-on for a sale after Dickens' death in 1870, does prove that [he] kept and shelved the book. ' *** We offer our Gould bookplates, printed letterpress in two colors, in the same spirit. Not quite a history of geology, Thinking about the Earth is a history of the geological tradition of Western science. Beginning with a discussion of "organic" views of the earth in ancient cultures, David Oldroyd traverses such topics as "mechanical" and "historicist" views of the earth, map-work, chemical analyses of rocks and minerals, geomorphology, experimental petrology, seismolo ...
