Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of a scientific survey undertaken in Puerto Rico from 1913 to 1917, initiated by the New York Academy of Sciences. The six-chapter book presents the diverse findings of a team of researchers assembled to comprehensively study the island's geology, pale…ontology, zoology, anthropology, and botany. The survey's multifaceted approach to the study of Puerto Rico provides a historical record of the island's distinct flora, fauna, and geological formations as they were in the early 20th century, forming a scientific baseline against which modern ecological observations can be compared. It also informs current scientific understanding of the evolutionary and historical relationships between the organisms and landforms found in Puerto Rico and the rest of the Antilles. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
