Om its first stirrings in the nineteenth century and Alfred Wegener's original model of continental drift through the development of its full potential in modern plate tectonic theory Few scientific theories have been so all encompassing and none has surpassed plate tectonics in explaining such a wide variety of geological phenomena from the origins of mountain building to the formation of the ocean floor As it integrated our knowledge of the earth's surface with the investigation of its interior plate tectonics fused two previously autonomous strains of scientific inuiry Continental mobility changed for all time our view of the earth from a static globe to an evolving living planet and allowed us to see that changes in the earth's surface are but exterior manifestations
