Book Synopsis From Stone to Star by : Claude Allègre
Book excerpt: Chronicling one of the great scientific adventures of our time, the eminent geochemist Claude Allegre offers a fascinating glimpse into the sophisticated isotopic detective work that has established a geologic chronology of the earth and transformed our understanding of its genesis and history. From the fossil collecting methods of eighteenth-century geologists to the development of high resolution mass spectronomy, this book provides an engaging introduction to the history, methods, and theories of modern geology.
