The Chronologers' Quest: The Search for the Age of the Earth
Patrick Wyse Jackson
This book investigates the methods used to determine the Earth's age, from James Ussher and John Lightfoot examining biblical chronologies, to Arthur Holmes and Clair Patterson investigating radioactive dating of rocks. It will be of interest to those with little scientific background, and students and scientists in the Earth sciences.
