“ There is no study better fitted than that of geology to impress upon men of general culture that conviction of the unbroken sequence of the order of natural phenomena, throughout the duration of the universe, which is the great, and perhaps the most important, effect of the increase of natural knowledge. ”
Thomas Henry Huxley, The Advance of Science in the Last Half-Century (1887). copy citation
