Basic Palaeontology A comprehensive introduction to all aspects of palaeontology. It starts with a discussion of the basic principles of the subject and goes on to describe the principal features of all the main fossil groups including plants, invertebrates, vertebrates, trace fossils and microfossils. Written by two leading palaentologists, the text includes many modern ideas resulting from an improved understanding of evolution and the fossil record, palaeobiology and palaeoecology. The final chapter summarises the history of life, introducing large-scale evolution and extinctions.
	Invertebrate Palaeontology and Evolution This fully revised fourth edition includes a complete update of the sections on evolution and the fossil record, and the evolution of the early metazoans. Additional work on the classification of the major phyla (in particular brachiopods and molluscs) has been incorporated, and the section on trace fossils is extensively rewritten. The author has taken care to involve specialists in the major groups, to ensure the taxonomy is as up-to-date and accurate as possible.
	Bringing Fossils To Life: An Introduction To Paleobiology This is the first text to combine both paleontology and paleobiology. Traditional textbooks treat these separately, despite the recent trend to combine them in teaching. It bridges the gap between purely theoretical paleobiology and purely descriptive invertebrate paleontology books. The text is targeted at undergraduate geology and biology majors, with the emphasis on organisms, rather than dead objects to be described and catalogued. Current ideas from modern biology, ecology, population genetics, and many other concepts will be applied to the study of the fossil record.
	Manual of Practical Laboratory and Field Techniques in Palaeobiology The collection and preparation of palaeontological samples requires special techniques, all of which are documented in this manual. It provides information on the collection and preparation of material and a database of the techniques used. This book should be of interest to postgraduates and researchers in palaeontology.
	Numerical Palaeobiology: Computer-based Modelling and Analysis of Fossils and their Distributions This book, aimed at final year undergraduates, graduate students and professional palaeontologists, biologists and geologists, brings together the many strands of contemporary palaeontology through the medium of numeracy. It provides a comprehensive review, with applications, of the many computer based techniques available for the analysis and modelling of palaeontological data. The first part of the book covers classical phenetic taxonomy through cladistics and the computer-generated reconstructions of fossils to actual models for fossil growth. This leads onto distribution analysis and modelling of fossils in time and space. Detailed stratigraphical distributions of fossils are described in quantitative terms together with the larger-scale patterns in the history of life itself, while palaeoecology, palynofacies, trace fossils and palaeogeography are all introduced through a spectrum of numerical algorithms. The majority of the studies are linked to specific software packages and many are illustrated with case histories. Although there are a number of books available on computer modelling and data analysis in geology, no study has integrated the two with such a range of palaeontological subject material.
	Fossils: The Key to the Past Richard Fortey has written a clear and authoritative text which gives a straightforward introduction to fossils, their study and their use in reconstructing the history of the Earth. He discusses what fossils are, how they form, and how they provide us with the evidence for evolution and the emergence of life. Extensively illustrated with photographs from the rich collections at The Natural History Museum, the book gives a current view of our understanding of the significance of fossil finds, and presents palaeontology as a living science.
	Palaeobiology II 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.
	Life of the Past An introduction to the history of life on Earth, covering basic principles and processes, ecologic and paleoecologic organization, the history of past life forms, and major events that shaped this history. Can be used as a text for general students or beginning geology and biology students.
	S&S Guide to Fossils A guide for both beginning and expert fossil enthusiasts, with information on classification, geographic distribution, age, and how evolution is traced using fossils.
	The Fossil Book: A Record of Prehistoric Life
	Understanding Fossils: An Introduction to Invertebrate Palaeontology This book provides thorough coverage of palaeontology. It introduces the main invertebrate fossil groups, with summaries of characteristics, classification, evolutionary history and applications. It also provide up-to-date examples of the uses and importance of fossils.
