Summary "Wolds in the Making: The Evolution of the Universe" by Svante Arrhenius is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work explores concepts of cosmogony and the evolution of the universe, delving into subjects such as volcanic phenomena, earthquakes, and the characteristics of celestial bodies. The book reflects Arrhenius's interest in explaining the physical foundations of the universe based on the principles of physics and chemistry. The opening of the book serves as a preface in which Arrhenius outlines his motivations for writing the work, referencing the shortcomings of previous theories on the origin of the universe and the importance of understanding volcanic activity and its consequences on Earth. He discusses past natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, stressing their impact on human life and society. Arrhenius introduces the connection between Earth’s geological features and its climatic conditions while setting the stage for a detailed examination of the evolution of both the planet and the universe in the subsequent chapters.
