The Story of the Earth's Atmosphere (Classic Reprint) by Douglas Archibald (Engl

Description: The Story of the Earth's Atmosphere (Classic Reprint) by Douglas Archibald Excerpt from The Story of the Earths AtmosphereI have desired in the present little work to put forward the main features of our knowledge of the conditions which prevail in our atmosphere as they are interpreted through the science of today. The Atmosphere, unlike its solid partner, contains no gold or coal mines with which to stimulate scientific research. Its study has consequently been somewhat neglected until of late years, and is even now only just emerging from the stage of myth and speculation into that of fact and certainty.This desirable result has been chiefly attained by the disuse of vague speculation and the application of the known laws of physics.I have therefore written, not for the minority, who vaguely wonder at the relation of extraordinary facts and pass on, but for what I believe to be that much more numerous section who are not content with a mere collection of facts, but want to know the reason why.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
