Energetics of Geological Processes Hans Ramberg on his 60th birthday / edited by S. K. Saxena, S. Bhattacharji.

Hans Ramberg is working in an area of geology where 60 years are a short, often negligible period of time. This is not so in the lives of men. For us it is a time for evaluating past accomplishments and a time for friends to express their appreciation and admiration. Some universities have become fa...
