In the excerpt from Principles of Geology‚ Charles Lyell discusses the importance of clarifying the age of the earth when determining the nature of geological changes. Lyell explains that geologists have had to overcome the long-held theory of a several thousand-year-old earth in order to explain that the striking geological features were not necessarily caused by drastic occurrences happening uniformly all over the earth‚ but over a long period of time and in different locations. Overall‚ Lyell
