Abstract

OVER the past few years there has been a great revival of interest in the theory of continental drift, owing largely to the results yielded by palaeomagnetic investigations. Whereas most geologists a decade ago were inclined to be sceptical about the possibility of the continental land masses having wandered, the evidence now avilable appears much more convincing.
