	Glossary of People: Pe
		American scientist, logician, and founder of American Pragmatism; the first US writer to gain international recognition as a philosopher, Peirce criticised what he regarded as the ‘metaphysics’ which dominated European thinking, while endeavouring to construct his own system to rival that of Immanuel Kant.
		After spending a year with the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, Peirce graduated from Harvard in chemistry in 1863 and rejoined the Survey to make observations of lunar occultations, and continued with astronomical work until 1878.
		The Survey however, was dissatisfied with his work for them and Peirce resigned in 1891, never enjoying regular employment for the remainder of his life.

	Seismology
		Travelling through Mexico and Central and South America, José de Acosta (1539-1600), for example, described and tried to explain variations of the magnetic declination, the motions of the oceans, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the tides and causes of the winds.
		Continuing in this tradition Jesuit Missionaries of the eighteenth century engaged in cartographic work, conducted geodetic measurements, measurements of the magnetic inclination and declination, and made careful notations of other geophysical observations in China, Tibet, the Middle East, and in Central and South America.
		The beginning of modern Jesuit observatories must be placed in 1838 with the founding of the first two observatories of Stonyhurst in England and Georgetown in Washington, D.C. By 1930 there were thirty in operation throughout the world.
