Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 October 2009
Summary
For most of human history, as described in Chapter 1, hard facts were scarce and speculation widespread. By the eighteenth century, however, sounder ideas were at last slowly forming (Chapter 2). And now, in the twenty-first century, detailed explanations are plentiful. Chapters 3, 4, 5 and 6 review our present knowledge, Chapter 3 starting with the very basic processes.
