PDF-[BOOK]-The Making of Geology: Earth Science in Britain 1660–1815

Between the midseventeenth century and the early nineteenth century there developed in Britain a range of empirical and increasingly secular sciences concerned with the earth This book presents a detailed account of how this development led to the creation of a complex sociointellectual fabric of methods ambitions facts and ideas which took on the nature of a distinctive selfsustaining discipline geology During this period the criteria for a proper science of the earth were continually reassessed and the earth as an object of science was radically reinterpreted In his account of this transformation Dr Porter treats science as an integral but distinct part of the spectrum of mans intellectual and social activities His account thus illuminates the nature of science and scientific knowledge as a dynamic intellectual social and cultural enterprise The book will be of interest not only to historians and philosophers of science but also to social historians and geologists.

The geology of Iraq as a study is closely depended on basic geologic branches, such as tectonics, . stratigraphy. , . sedimentology. , petrology, paleontology and structural geology. On the other hand, there are some applied branches in geology directly related to studying geology of Iraq, such as petroleum geology, hydrogeology and economic geology.
