Large 4to. 310 mm. Original full cloth binding decorated in blind with a gold gilt seal of the state on the front board. Front board detached; spine chipped and laid down. Henry Darwin Rogers 1808-1866 was one of the great geologists of the 19th century. Among other governmental and academic duties he was the State Geologist and head of the PA Geological Survey. Begun in 1836 and lasting until 1842 the first Pennsylvania Geological Survey would not publish its results until 1858 due to budget problems and other delays. In the end Rogers'"was an epoch-making work and beyond question the most important document on the geology of America that had appeared up to date with the exception of the final reports of the New York Survey." These geologic maps accompanied the final report and were the first such maps prepared for the state. They contain impressive cultural and topographical detail including cities towns street grids county names and boundaries roads railroads mills ferrys springs water salt and oil! and more. The presentation accentuates the complex folded structure of the Appalachian Mountains. He and his brother William were the first to work out the folded nature of the Appalachians. Uncommon. PA6.

''Darwin dÂŽfend l'idÂŽe que l'espÂce humaine prÂŽsente six ÂŽtats ÂŽmotionnels fondamentaux : la joie la surprise la peur le dÂŽgožt la colÂre et la tristesse. D'aprÂs ses recherches et celles de ses contemporains les expressions faciales reprÂŽsentant ces ÂŽmotions ÂŽtaient universelles et interprÂŽtÂŽes de la mÂme maniÂre par tous les Hommes. Se basant sur la thÂŽorie de l'ÂŽvolution par la sÂŽlection naturelle qu'il avait exposÂŽe treize ans auparavant il en dÂŽduit que s'il n'ÂŽtait question que de culture la manifestation des ÂŽmotions aurait considÂŽrablement variÂŽ dans les diffÂŽrentes rÂŽgions du monde depuis l'ancÂtre commun ˆ tous les Âtres humains comme le font des espÂces qui divergent et qui ÂŽvoluent.
