At the beginning of this century the German geologist Alfred Wegener put forward a much scorned theory: that the continents can move around the face of the earth. Only in the last 20 years has the accumulated evidence finally convinced all but a handful of diehards that he was essentially correct. Dr Dan McKenzie of Cambridge University played an important part in bringing about this geological revolution and he discusses with John Maddox how our view of the apparently solid earth has been transformed.
