At the very end of the 18th century – in 1797, to be precise – in Edinburgh, capital of Scotland, James Hutton was dying. This was bad news for Hutton, of course, but good news for geology as it cleared the way for a man named John Playfair to re-write Hutton’s classic work without embarrassing the great scientist who had done so much to advance human understanding of Earth sciences.
