This 1875 treatise is the culmination of the early scientific work of James Croll (1821–90), using physics to explore the causes of the glacial epochs, climatic changes and the circulation of ocean currents. Though a self-educated amateur, Croll was the first scientist to connect geology, physics and climate change.
