Earth, Universe, Cosmos is a major new work by one of the world's great tectonicians. Each chapter makes departures from conventional theory. The origin of Banded Iron Formations is explained for the first time. A major revision of tectonics is necessary following Carey's explanation of orogenesis as non-compressed and vertical, driven by gravity.
Carey explains how the major features of the earth can be explained by a high rate of earth expansion. He concludes with a tour de force discussion of cosmology. This book is a "must read" for all cosmologists and earth and planetary scientists.

The classic book. This book is about the history of geology and its theories. Carey, long-time professor in Tasmania, reviews the problems seemingly always encountered when new ideas (whether about fossils or mountain building) displace old ones. An early adherent of the idea of continental movement over the earth's surface, Carey ascribes such movement to an expanding earth rather than to movement over its own substrata, as is generally accepted. There is an amazing amount of information for general readers to devour in this fine volume. (Illustrations not seen.) R.G. Schipf, Univ. of Montana Lib., Missoula
