Die Entstehung der Alpen
Popular Science
Suess's 1875 debut monograph on the origin of the Alps, a dense 168-page argument that the Alps formed by lateral compression rather than vertical uplift — a conclusion that foreshadowed plate tectonics by nearly a century. Şengör pairs it with Das Antlitz der Erde as the two essential Suess texts for understanding the birth of structural geology.

Şengör pairs this 1875 debut monograph with Das Antlitz der Erde as the two essential Suess texts, noting its prescient argument for lateral compression in mountain-building a century before plate tectonics confirmed it.
