| 520 | _a"James Geikie, the Man and the Geologist" by Marion I. Newbigin and Sir J. S. Flett is a biography written in the early 20th century. This work chronicles the life and contributions of James Geikie, a prominent Scottish geologist known for his studies on glacier movement and the Ice Age. It delves into his career, personal life, and the influences that shaped his scientific inquiries, making it a compelling read for those interested in geology or the history of scientific thought. The opening of the biography introduces readers to Geikie's early years, highlighting significant family influences and formative experiences that played a crucial role in his development. It details his childhood in Edinburgh, a family background rich in art and music, and reveals his early strains of curiosity in natural sciences, particularly geology. The narrative discusses his struggles in formal education and his transition to a fulfilling career within the Geological Survey, setting the stage for his major contributions to the field, notably regarding glaciation and the changing climates of prehistoric Europe.
