Course Description
Instructor: George deMan
When most of us took geology (some 60 years ago) neither plate-tectonics nor its mechanism had been confirmed, though Alfred Wegener had proposed it in 1912. Today science has confirmed the movement of continental masses upon the “conveyor-belts” of the mantle and gone so far as to speculate on the pre-existence of as many as seven super-continents in the Earth’s early geologic history. The course will explore these in detail along with their anticipated positions and the co-development of evolutionary periods.
