| Summary: | Space exploration, observations of the Earth's interior, laboratory investigations, and theoretical analyses over the past two decades have added some interesting twists in scientists' narrative of the history of planets, including giant late-stage impacts, magma oceans, dense primordial atmospheres, interactions between mantles and cores, and the influence of tectonics on climate. For people fluent in geophysics, here are 11 papers about some of them, from a symposium in Vienna, August 1991. No index. Member price, $19.60.
