520 | |a Fifty years ago Alfred Wegener, the German meteorologist, published his theory of continental drift. The publication of Wegener's book gave rise to a vigorous controversy in the 1920s. Lack of a decisive test, however, and strong arguments against the theory on the part of geophysicists caused the idea of continental drift to be abandoned, at least by the majority of geologists in England and America. About ten years ago the development of studies of rock magnetism gave rise to new interest in this theory and has caused geophysicists in other fields to reconsider the ideas in relation to their own studies. It therefore seemed worthwhile to bring together within one volume a discussion of the geophysical evidence relating to horizontal movements in the earth's crust in its widest sense. This is not the time for a reappraisal of Wegener's work but it is hoped that this volume will stimulate a serious interest in a subject formerly considered by many earth scientists as already closed. | ||
