1st Edition

Geology & Mineralogy, Considered with Reference to Natural Theology, Volume II, 1836

By William Buckland Copyright 2003

    Moving away from his earlier belief in a short, catastrophic history of the Earth, this volume shows how Buckland envisages instead progressive change as the Earth gradually cooled as it was prepared for human occupation. Extinct creatures did not die out because they were poorly designed; God loved the dinosaurs and had adapted them to their various circumstances.
