In this comprehensively illustrated guide to the whole island, Charles Holland, Emeritus Fellow Trinity College, Dublin and formerly Professor of Geology and Mineralogy, describes this wonderful scenery and places it in its geological context. He explains why the scenery looks as it does, how the land beneath our feet has been formed and why the landscape changes, sometimes dramatically, from lush pasture to mountain and moorland. It is written for all those who want to understand the fabric of the island's scenery.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49533827318033,"sku":"GOR003592102","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53449728262417,"sku":"GOR005335894","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/190376520X.jpg?v=1750726325"},{"product_id":"geology-of-ireland-book-charles-hepworth-holland-9781903765715","title":"The Geology of Ireland","description":"The Geology of Ireland is the definitive guide to the geology of the island of Ireland as a whole. This completely revised edition has been updated to reflect the ten years of research undertaken since the last edition was published. For the first time the work is presented with colour illustration, where appropriate, throughout the text. It presents the geology of the island in geological sequence and deals also with the economically important offshore geology of Ireland.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50899354419473,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50899354517777,"sku":"GOR013117484","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1903765714.jpg?v=1750996947"},{"product_id":"geology-of-ireland-book-charles-hepworth-holland-9781903765074","title":"The Geology of Ireland","description":"The land of Ireland is largely of Precambrian and Palaeozoic rocks, amply covered by the drift deposits of the very latest episodes of geological history. In The Geology of Ireland this history is traced and explained from Precambrian times to the present. Contributing specialists tell this long geological story from these early beginnings to the modern day in a sequence of pieces dealing with each period in its context. The Geology of Ireland is about the island of Ireland as a physical whole. Studies of marine geology and geophysics show that the Irish coastline does not capriciously cut off from observation a solid geology continuous in character from that of the land. Thus a short account of Ireland s economically important offshore is provided in the book. The text is intended for professional geologists and students of geology.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51104498974993,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51104499630353,"sku":"GOR009944463","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1903765072.jpg?v=1750867216"},{"product_id":"geology-of-ireland-book-charles-hepworth-holland-9781903765043","title":"The Geology of Ireland","description":"The land of Ireland is largely of Precambrian and Palaeozoic rocks, amply covered by the drift deposits of the episodes of geological history.

What do we understand when we think about time? What do we mean by 'now'? This book covers concisely all the different aspects of time with an anchoring point within the geological sciences. Here successions of strata are seen as representing successions of events in the long history of the earth; palaeontology provides a record of organic evolution through nearly the whole of these several thousand million years. The rest of the book diversifies in discussing the measurement of time both physically and biologically; our human perception of it; the ending of personal time in death; the pervading presence of time in the arts; out through astronomy to cosmology; into philosophy and religion. The idea of time is a very complex one but this book undertakes a journey to prove that it is not beyond comprehension.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52333116424465,"sku":"NLS9780471985457","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53474739749137,"sku":"CIN0471985457G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780471985457.jpg?v=1758153761"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-charles-hepworth-holland.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
