“We have chosen the general heading, “Our Earth” for the 1975 International Science School because its lecture course covers selected topics within the wide range of the fields of the earth sciences.  In each of the fields discussed the lecturers are specialists of world renown and the material has been specially prepared, written and edited for fifth-year high school students.  We therefore feel that the lectures will be of interest not only to the students, but to the widest sections of the public. 
The Foundation’s 1975 International Science School and, indeed, this book, are intended to stimulate and develop science consciousness, in Australia and throughout the world.”
