For generations, the ground beneath the feet of our ancestors seemed solid and unchanging around 30 years ago, two things happened that were to revolutionize the understanding of our home planet first, geologists realized that the continents themselves were drifting across the surface of the globe and that oceans were being created and destroyed secondly, pictures of the entire planet were returned from space as the astronomer fred hoyle had predicted, this let loose an idea as powerful as any in history suddenly, the earth began to be viewed as a single entity; a dynamic, interacting whole, controlled by complex processes we scarcely understood it began to seem less solid as one astronaut put it, a blue jewel on black velvet; small, fragile and touchingly alone geologists at last were able to see the whole as well as the detail; the wood as well as the trees this book brings their account up to date with the latest understanding of the processes that govern our planet
