Principles of Geology: being an attempt to explain the former changes of the Earth's surface, by reference to causes now in operation is a book by the Scottish geologist Charles Lyell, first published in 3 volumes in 1830–1833.Lyell used geology throughout as a basis to strengthen his argument for Uniformitarianism.

The book shows that the processes that are occurring in the present are the same processes that occurred in the past.
