His extensive fieldwork and thorough research laid the foundation for much of modern glaciology.The book also offers insights into Geikies personality and character, portraying him as a dedicated scientist with a passion for education. Geikies commitment to both teaching and research is reflected in his tenure at the University of Edinburgh and his numerous scientific publications. James Geikie, the Man and the Geologist serves as both an academic tribute to his geological discoveries and a personal reflection on the life of a man who significantly advanced the understanding of Earths geological history.</p>...7098932James Geikie the Man and the Geologist2020https://www.gandhi.com.mx/james-geikie-the-man-and-the-geologist-9789370740181/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7076512/image.jpg?v=638810241161170000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2025Inglés
