On the Edge of Eternity

Auteur: Dal Prete, Ivano (Senior Lecturer in the History of Science, Medicine and Public Health Program, Senior Lecturer in the History of Science, Medicine and Public Health Program, Yale University)
Editeur: Oxford University Press Inc
This revisionist work challenges the assumption that deep time was "discovered" during the Enlightenment by showing that the possibility of an old or even eternal Earth circulated freely in medieval and early modern Europe, even in popular works intended for a large public, and that it was common to deny any geological role to the biblical Flood.
