Finding that the work of a geologist did not really appeal to him, he left the field and pursued his keen interest in the science of geology independently. His interest in natural history was matched only by his interest in ancient archaeology, and the intersection of the two.
Driven by a primary interest in the enigma of the Ice Age, the author embarked on a quest to solve what is probably the greatest mystery in geology, undeterred by the many decades of prior and futile efforts that had preceded his. Growing up near formerly glaciated landscapes in Ireland, and living among them in the Northeastern United States, he became very familiar with the evidence the Ice Age left behind.
Careful observation, an eye for detail, and an open mind enabled the author to achieve insights previously missed or obscured by an excessive adherence to traditional, gradualistic academic dogma. His review of the geological sciences extended back to the early years of the science and to a time when catastrophism was the dominant view of earth history.
The question the author attempts to answer, therefore, is whether modern-day gradualist uniformitarianism is correct or whether some form of catastrophism holds the better answer. And, after thirty years of study, the author considers the latter to be much more the correct.
The author's approach to his critical analysis of the Atlantis legend and the science of geology is based solely on the evidence and underpinned by the laws of physics, and, using much scientific evidence and those laws of physics, this series seeks to demonstrate that the geological history of this world may well be very different to what orthodox academic geology says it is, and that lost Atlantis may indeed be a reality.lihat lebih sedikit
