A detailed study of geological research in the Lake District from the end of the eighteenth century to the end of 2000. This volume shows, by historical exposition, how the modern understanding of the stratigraphy and the geological history and structure of a specific region has been achieved. It recounts the work of individual scientists and institutions (especially the British Geological Survey); differences and developments of interpretation; the emergence of new techniques; the development of mapping and the events lying behind the publication of Lakeland maps; the roles of research students, university staff, surveyors, amateurs, government and industry. A special feature is the discussion of the relationships between the study of Lakeland geology and the problem of nuclear waste disposal.

ON GENERATION AND CORRUPTION available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. �OUR next task is to study coming-to-be and passing-away. We are to distinguish the causes, and to state the definitions, of these processes considered in general-as changes predicable uniformly of all the things that come-to-be and pass-away by nature. Further, we are to study growth and 'alteration'. We must inquire what each of them is; and whether 'alteration' is to be identified with coming-to-be, or whether to these different names there correspond two separate processes with distinct natures. On this question, indeed, the early philosophers are divided. Some of them assert that the so-called 'unqualified coming-to-be' is 'alteration', while others maintain that 'alteration' and coming-to-be are distinct. For those who say that the universe is one something (i.e. those who generate all things out of one thing) are bound to assert that coming-to-be is 'alteration', and that whatever 'comes-to-be' in the proper sense of the term is 'being altered': but those who make the matter of things more than one must distinguish coming-to-be from 'alteration'. To this latter class belong Empedocles, Anaxagoras, and Leucippus. And yet Anaxagoras himself failed to understand his own utterance. He says, at all events, that coming-to-be and passing-away are the same as 'being altered':' yet, in common with other thinkers, he affirms that the elements are many. Thus Empedocles holds that the corporeal elements are four, while all the elements-including those which initiate movement-are six in number; whereas Anaxagoras agrees with Leucippus and Democritus that the elements are infinite.�
