A Critique of Deep Time Geology
WIDENING THE GEOSCIENCES: A HISTORICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL PERSPECTIVE ORAL
science and society | 13 december 2023
T. Mark Harrison, Adrian Lenardic
One explanation for the broad range of views of what constitutes a philosophy of science is that there is no such thing. Geochemistry came of age ~60 ...
