Cambrian Ocean World (Life of the Past)
by Fellow and Tutor in Philosophy John Foster, Sir
This volume, aimed at the general reader, presents life and times of the amazing animals that inhabited Earth more than 500 million years ago. The Cambrian Period was a critical time in Earth's history. During this immense span of time nearly every modern group of animals appeared. Although life had been around for more than 2 million millennia, Cambrian rocks preserve the record of the first appearance of complex animals with eyes, protective skeletons, antennae, and complex ecologies. Grazing,...

Oregon Gold and Gems Maps
The remains of snails in ancient soils and sediments are one of the most important biological indicators of past landscapes, and have attracted study for well over a century. In spite of this, the only English-language textbook was published in 1972 and is long since out of print. Snails provides a comprehensive, up to date reference text on the use of snails as indicators of past environments in Quaternary landscape studies and archaeology. It considers the use of terrestrial and freshwater s...

Great Alaskan Dinosaur Adventure
by Buddy Davis, Mike Liston, and John Whitmore
In 1994, 5 explorers braved the dangers and miseries of the northern Alaskan wilderness to find and bring home bones from the Liscomb Bed - an area rife with fossilized and Unfossilized bones of dinosaurs! Analysis of their specimens was not complete when the book was published, but since then, it appears that red blood cells were still present in the frozen bones. How they survived cold, exhaustion, quicksand, a gushing leak in a raft, and mosquitos by the millions, is as interesting as what th...
Polymerid Tribolites from the Cambrian of Northwestern Hunan, China, Two-Volume Set
by S Peng, L.E. Babcock, and H. Lin
China is richly endowed with Cambrian strata yielding some of the best-preserved fossils known anywhere in the world. The trilobites are most important element in the fauna, and of scientific relevance for several reasons. First, they are of regional importance in the precise correlation of strata, and are of primary use in characterising mappable formations. Second, some of the species are widespread internationally, and these permit the placing of Chinese stratigraphical schemes within the glo...
