5.0 out of 5 stars
A landmark, pioneering work of Earth theory,
By A Customer
This review is from: Craters, Cosmos, and Chronicles: A New Theory of Earth (Hardcover)
Shaw sets a new standard for synthesis in the sciences, not just the earth and planetary sciences.His profound and compelling theory provides a wholly new view of earth history and dynamics through the medium of nonlinear dynamics. This is a tremendously exciting, landmark work around which seminars in several different disciplines should be organized.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Leading thoughts on the behavior of earth systems.,
By Denis L. Norton (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Craters, Cosmos, and Chronicles: A New Theory of Earth (Hardcover)
Shaw is a pioneer blazing trails for earth scientists into real applications of the popular but rarely applied theories of dynamical system behavior. This text is a landmark in science that opens doors to new ways of thinking, challenges many scared cows of the science, and points to better paths. Anyone interested in Choas, fractals, system dynamics or earth processes in general will find this book a deep intellectual keystone to scienctific thoughts.
