Description:

First edition. Major advances in our understanding of the history of life on Earth have resulted from the study of exceptionally well-preserved fossil sites (Lagerstätten). Study of such sites from around the world and from different periods in geological time can provide a fairly complete picture of the evolution of ecosystems down the ages. This book brings together succinct summaries of 14 of the better-known fossil Lagerstätten, beautifully illustrated throughout. For each site information is provided on its evolutionary position and significance; its background sedimentology, stratigraphy and palaeoenvironment; a description of the biota and palaeoecology, and a comparison with other similar Lagerstätten. The book will be of value to a wide range of students and professionals in palaeontology and related sciences, and to amateur enthusiasts.
