The Living Origin of Rocks and Minerals - Walther Cloos

Descriere The Living Origin of Rocks and Minerals - Walther Cloos

\nOffers new ways of looking at static, inert rocks and minerals as part of the dynamic development of the Earth.\n \nAn increasing number of enthusiasts are attracted by the rich variety of rocks and minerals around us, and new ways of looking at them.\n \nIn this book, Walther Cloos views the Earth as a living organism, with different kingdoms of nature -- mineral, plant and animal - as stages left behind as the earth developed. He argues that everything currently inert and static was once dynamic and living.\n \nThe author considers many different aspects of geology, including chapters on oil, sedimentary rocks, radioactivity, volcanoes and metals.\n \nWritten over fifty years ago, this book is a classic, pioneering a scientific, geological understanding of Rudolf Steiner's spiritual insights into the evolution of the earth.\n \nThe previous edition of this book was published as The Living Earth.\n
