Overview
Taking the priest's narrative as a starting point, the book delves into all aspects of the geology of Greece and the Aegean region. The priest's account, in fact, serves as a springboard for the comparison of the actual geological evidence with the contemporary academic scientific interpretations of it. The pages of this volume resonate with the clash between the uniformitarian doctrines of the Lyellian camp of 19th century British geologists, and the catastrophism of the original founders of the science.
Intriguingly, Greece and the Aegean emerge as as a living laboratory, challenging existing geological paradigms to their core. The author expertly navigates through the evidence, comparing what that evidence clearly indicates with the prevailing uniformitarian theories. The reader is led to question whether the established doctrines can convincingly account for the evidence or if the priest's catastrophe offers a more cogent explanation. The unerring guides in this exploration are the unbreakable laws of physics, simple logic and our own everyday experience.
The narrative unfolds to demonstrate the inadequacy of conventional academic theories, paving the way for the revolutionary assertion that catastrophic events hold the key to deciphering the Greek geological puzzle. A detailed synthesis of research and analysis culminates in a compelling revelation: that the very fabric of the Earth's history bears the indelible marks of cataclysmic upheaval.
