Palaeobiology: A Synthesis was widely acclaimed both for its
content and production quality. Ten years on, Derek Briggs and
Peter Crowther have once again brought together over 150 leading
authorities from around the world to produce Palaeobiology II.
Using the same successful formula, the content is arranged as a
series of concise articles, taking a thematic approach to the
subject, rather than treating the various fossil groups
systematically.
This entirely new book, with its diversity of new topics and
over 100 new contributors, reflects the exciting developments in
the field, including accounts of spectacular newly discovered
fossils, and embraces data from other disciplines such as
astrobiology, geochemistry and genetics.
Palaeobiology II will be an invaluable resource, not only
for palaeontologists, but also for students and researchers in
other branches of the earth and life sciences.
- Written by an international team of recognised authorities in
the field.
- Content is concise but informative.
- Demonstrates how palaeobiological studies are at the heart of a range of scientific themes.
