Overview

Excerpt from The Age of the Earth I desire to acknowledge my gratitude to Prof. J. Joly and the Council of the Royal Dublin Society for permission to use the admirable series of micro-photographs which constitute the Frontis piece to Prof. P. Lowell for his photographs of the Polar Caps Of Mars and to Sir Wm. Crookes and the Council of the Royal Society for the photograph and radiograph of a piece of pitch blende. To a number of friends who have helped me in revising the proof-sheets, and to others who have turned my rough sketches into finished diagrams, I wish to tender my thanks.
