From the Earth's hyer-compressed core to the places where the planet's energy bursts through its fragile crust, Naked Earth provides readers with new understanding of ancient mysteries and the latest in geophysical hypothesis. "Top-notch science journalism."--Publishers Weekly, satrred review. First serial to Earth.
Editorial : From Publishers Weekly
Geophysics is undergoing a "whole-earth revolution," with changes at Earth's molten core increasingly linked to what is going on at its surface. Vogel, a former editor for Discover, brings a weighty subject vibrantly to life in this exciting report. It is common knowledge that the continents once formed a giant landmass, called Pangaea, 180 million years ago, yet many readers will be unfamiliar with the Supercontinent Cycle?the belief, now shared by many geophysicists, that the Pangaean supercontinent was a recurrent, not a one-time, phenomenon. Furthermore, the existence of Pangaea seems to be stored like a memory in inner Earth's rocks and may be dictating where enormous floods of magma (molten rock) erupt. These eruptions in turn have been linked to the reversal of Earth's magnetic poles, a flip-flop that supposedly has occurred 300 times in the last 200 million years. Vogel evokes a dynamic underworld of powerful currents of liquid rock; colliding tecton

Prior to World War I the "See America First" campaign was launched to encourage Americans to spend vacations here rather than traveling to Europe. I first started reading this book as it was offered to me for a voluntary review. It concludes with an overview of von Mises as the 20th century's preeminent free-market thinker.
As a layman in economics, I learned a lot about von Mises the man and economist. I might try some prior to surgery.. I have been seeing this numerous places and never knew what this diet
