What is Evidence of Continental Drift and Magnetism about?

- Early proposals of continental drift were rejected due to the lack of a believable mechanism to explain how continents could move. Developments in the 1940s-1960s provided evidence that supported plate tectonics theory, including the discovery of seafloor spreading at mid-ocean ridges and magnetic striping of the ocean floors. This led to the acceptance of the theory that continents drift due to movement of tectonic plates.
