PHYSICAL GEOLOGY AND 
PALEONTOLOGY, 
ON THE BASIS OF PHIEAT 
BY 
HARRY GOVIER SEELEY. 
PROFESSOR OF GEOGRAPHY IN KING’S COLLEGE, LONDON. 
With Frontispiece in Chromo=Lithograpby, and Fllustrations, 
“It is impossible to praise too highly the research which PROFESSOR SEELEY’S 
‘PHYSICAL GEOLOGY’ evidences. IT IS FAR MORE THAN A TEXT-BOOK—It is 
a D1RECTORY to the Student in prosecuting his researches.” —Axtvact from the 
Presidential Address io the Geological Society, 1885, by Rev. Professor Bonney, 
WIESE, (ELD. T de 5. 
‘““ PROFESSOR SEELEY maintains in his ‘ PHysICAL GEOLOGY’ the high 
reputation he already deservedly bears as a Teacher. . . . It is difficult, 
in the space at our command, to do fitting justice to so large a work. . 
The final chapters, which are replete with interest, deal with the Biological 
aspect of Palzontology. Here we find discussed the origin, the extinction, 
succession, migration, persistence, distribution, relation, and variation of species 
—with other considerations, such as the Identification of Strata by Fossils, 
Homotaxis, Local Faunas, Natural History Provinces, and the relation of 
Living to Extinct forms.” —Dr. Henry Woodward, F.R.S., tn the ** Geological 
Magazine.” 
‘“A deeply interesting volume, dealing with Physical Geology as a whole, 
and also presenting us with an animated summary of the leading doctrines and 
facts of Palzeontology, as looked at from a modern standpoint.” — Scotsman, 
** PROFESSOR SEELEY’S work includes one of the most satisfactory Treatises 
on Lithology in the English language. . . . So much that is not accessible 
in other works is presented in this volume, that no Student of Geology can 
afford to be without it.”—American Journal of Engineering. 
‘* Geology from the point of view of Evolution.” — Westminster Review. 
** PROFESSOR SEELEY’S PHYSICAL GEOLOGY is full of instructive matter, 
whilst the philosophical spirit which it displays will charm many a reader. 
From early days the author gave evidence of a powerful and eminently original 
genius. No one has shown more convincingly than the author that, in all 
ways, the past contains within itself the interpretation of the existing world.” — 
Annals of Natural History.
