Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - â??Observations on the Temple of Serapis At Pozzuoli Near Naplesâ? is a detailed study by Charles Babbage, exploring the geological phenomena surrounding the Temple of Serapis. Published in 1847, this work investigates the frequent elevation and depression of large portions of the Earth's surface over long periods. Babbage delves into the causes of these geological shifts, arguing that the same forces remain active. This historical scientific analysis offers valuable insights into the Earth's dynamic processes and the enduring effects of geological activity. A key work for anyone interested in the history of geology, seismology, and Italian history.
