The Ascent of Man: Downhill All the Way is a 2009 book by Richard W Guy, published by the Institute of the Expanding Earth. It is one of a series of works in which Guy develops the Expanding Earth thesis.
Overview
Guy argues that the Earth has grown in size over geological time, and that this expansion — rather than plate subduction — accounts for a range of observations. A central claim is summarized in his statement that "the only reason the seas recede is because the Earth is expanding," which he uses to explain such puzzles as seashells found in mountain caves and formerly coastal cities that are now landlocked.
