Overview

Like other Expanding-Earth writers, he holds that this growth — rather than plate-tectonic drift and subduction — better accounts for the fit of the continents and the pattern of the ocean floors. The book appeared during the early-1980s revival of interest in Earth expansion (the period of S. W. Carey's 1981 Sydney symposium).
