Vernadsky mostly
worked on developing a nooshpere concept, here are some references that I
found:
Vernadsky,
Vladimir I. 1998. "The Biosphere". New York:
Copernicus.
Biblioteka trudov akademika V.I. Vernadskogo (The Library of
Academician Vernadsky’s Works),
series editor, Academician A.L. Yanshin. Volume 3: V.I. Vernadsky: Trudy po geokhimii (V.I. Vernadsky: Studies on Geochemistry), volume editor, Professor A.A. Yaroshevskii, Doctor of Geology and Mineralogy, Moscow: Nauka, 1994; 496 pages Bailes, Kendall.
Science and Russian Culture in an Age of Revolution: Vernadsky and His
Scientific School, 1863-1945 (Bloomington, Ind.: Indiana University Press,
1989).
He
taught courses in Sorbonne and in Germany in the 1920's and published some of
his works there, only several of his works were translated in
English.
Cheers.
Oleg.
