Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mountains: Their Origin, Growth and Decay
The many technical terms employed by specialists have been as far as possible avoided, but it is not always easy or even desirable to do without them. Those introduced, however, are explained either in the text or in the accompanying glossary. For convenience of reference, indeed, the explanations given in the text are usually repeated, with or without additional detail, in the glossary.
