5.0 out of 5 stars Expanding Earth Reference, June 23, 2009

David de Hilster (Long Beach, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Ocean of Truth: A Personal History of Global Tectonics (Princeton Series in Geology and Paleontology) (Hardcover)

I was quite amazed that this author wrote fairly about the expanding earth hypothesis. Normally authors treat it as a passing fancy and bad science. I bought the book specifically for insight into this area and there are a dozen or more pages dedicated to this area. Congrats to the author for an "unbiased" view of expanding earth which in my opinion is absolutely correct.
