在自然科学的大家庭中,地质学尚未占有它应有的地位。在关于地球和生命的科学当中,地质学还只是个小妹妹。它的方法在很大程度上迄今仍然是分析描述性的。地质学两百年巨大的劳动还不足以揭示、描述所有地质现象的广阔领域和整个地质年代。地质学只是在最近一百年才开始采用抽象模型并着手建立共同的地球理论。但是,地质学也做出了某种重大的成绩:它打破了认为地质现象是混乱的这样一个概念,发现了严密的发展顺序和方向,
In the family of natural sciences, geology has not possessed its rightful place. Geology is just a little sister in the science of earth and life. To a large extent, its methodology is still analytically descriptive until now. Geology Two hundred years of tremendous labor is not enough to reveal the vast field of all geological phenomena and the entire geological age. It is only in the last hundred years that geology began to adopt abstract models and set out to establish common earth theories. However, geology has also made some significant achievements: it broke the notion that geo-phenomena are chaos, discovered a strict order of development and direction,
