Autorenporträt
John Wesley Judd (1840-1916) was a British geologist and academic whose scholarly work profoundly influenced the scientific understanding of geology and evolution during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. An esteemed professor at the Royal College of Science, which later became part of Imperial College London, Judd made significant contributions to the study of volcanic rocks and stratigraphy. He served as the President of the Geological Society of London from 1903 to 1905 and was awarded the Wollaston Medal, one of the highest honors in geology, in 1891. 'The Coming of Evolution' is one of Judd's seminal works, wherein he meticulously reviews the historical development and the then-current status of evolutionary theory, connecting it to geological phenomena. Published in 1910, the book provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how the concept of evolution emerged through the lens of scientific observations. Judd's literary style is known for its clarity and methodical exposition, characteristics which helped facilitate the public's and academia's understanding of the intersections between geology and biology. His writings endeavored not only to advance scientific knowledge but also to educate a broader audience, thus embodying the principle that scientific inquiry should be accessible and comprehensible to all interested minds.
