Foreword

Many geological hypotheses, from cosmogonic to strictly practical, have been developed up to nowadays. No secret that each of most has been concentrated on few conceptual aspects, but appeared not in position to answer a number of questions that cannot be separated from it. Often a hypothesis is incompatible with others, also fragmental, and contradicts many facts except few considered by the author. To our common regret, for today there is no available comprehensive and non-contradictive conception. This causes the geophysics, geochemistry, mineralogy, palaeo-geography and many other areas developing as independent, not in all correlating sciences. And geology, having passed long ago its collective stage that is inherent in the beginning of each science, and having broadly developed the third stage - practical work, is still somewhere in the beginning of the second, analytical stage.

There is one more problem that general amount of factors affecting the Earth's development is quite large, and many of them we cannot take into account, since at present we even have not enough knowledge for it. Such are, for example, the characteristics of a substance under simultaneous affection of very high pressure and temperature, when the substance cannot expand and reduce the interior pressure arisen on account of high temperature. At such conditions, - and this has been corroborated by some indirect investigations, - the heterogeneous materials become homogeneous, the substance is in liquid or even in quasi-plasma state, having at the same time the properties of solid body. Of course, we in our studying also cannot avoid all such difficulties. None the less, we tried to select such basic laws and regularities whose affection onto the protoplanet substance transformation and the planetary formation is dominating. We tried to avoid the overloading of excessive mathematics, neither burdening with examination of the secondary factors. So we saw our main task in the evaluation of the influence of different factors and in selecting those dominating.

Due to such approach the results we obtained are estimating, and as a rule, they correlate with the known data. These results can be gradually refined by way of deeper analysis of each stage of development of protoplanet and planet, doing not contradicting the stated conception.

The work that we take pleasure submitting to your attention is highly interdisciplinary. Noting this, we tried to make it maximally understandable for the specialists of other areas of knowledge, so sometimes we explain the concepts well-known for the specialist in the specific area. Also, where possible, we tried to reduce the diversity of conventional concepts to some minimum being not tedious for the professional in the area. Meaning the same goal, we tried to do not overload our work with the terminology of narrow specialities. We also did not hesitate citing side-by-side with academic monographs some textbooks and popular literature written by the recognised specialists, because such literature is competent, gives the compressed results of many broad researches and its language is accessible for the specialists of other areas. We hope, this enabled us to bring together the initials of many areas of knowledge and to reveal the comprehensive pattern.
