Abstract This chapter surveys the history of geomorphology and Earth system science from 1965 to 2000. With roots in Enlightenment thought Hutton, Somerville, Humboldt Darwin, we see a preoccupation with holistic form develop through reductionist, mechanistic ideas nineteenth twentieth century be reawoken 1960s 1970s environmental movements space age, culminating major research programmes set b...

Geomorphology is the study of Earth’s landforms and the processes that shape them. From its beginnings, geomorphology has embraced a historical approach to understanding landforms; the concept of evolving landforms is firmly ingrained in geomorphic thought. Modern process geomorphologists use the term landscape evolution to describe the interactions between form and process that are played out ...

In this article I would present evidence to show that timing of the flow of neural signals within the ventral visual stream is a crucial part of the neural code for categorization of faces. We recorded the activity of 554 inferotemporal neurons from two macaque monkeys performing a fixation task. More than 1000 object images including human and non-primate animal faces were presented up to 10 t...
