Description:
This beautiful book provides a unique synthesis of the major fields of palaeobiology. It is not intended as a systematic treatment of the various groups of fossil organisms--this is covered in other books. Instead it provides reviews of over 120 important topics in the field, demonstrating how palaeontological and palaeobiological studies are at the heart of a host of scientific themes ranging from evolutionary biology, plate tectonics, to a direct use in the search for oil.
