Invertebrate Palaeontology and Evolution is well establishedas the foremost palaeontology text at the undergraduate level. Thisfully revised fourth edition includes a complete update of thesections on evolution and the fossil record, and the evolution ofthe early metazoans. New work on the classification of the major phyla (inparticular brachiopods and molluscs) has been incorporated. The section on trace fossils is extensively rewritten. The author has taken care to involve specialists in the majorgroups, to ensure the taxonomy is as up-to-date and accurate aspossible.

This book provides practical morphological information, together with detailed illustrations and brief explanatory texts. Each chapter starts with a brief introduction, and goes on to describe the respective organism’s morphology in detail through numerous illustrations. This is followed by a brief note on its classification, and concludes with illustrated examples of stratigraphically important organisms through time with their major distinguishing characteristics. Featuring over 2500 clearly labelled, hand-drawn and classroom-friendly illustrations, the book offers a fundamental resource for budding palaeontologists, petroleum geologists and palaeobiologists.

Originally published in 1946, this is the eighth edition of a book that was first published in 1893. It deals, specifically, with the fossils of the Invertebrata. The general plan is to give, for each group, first, a short account of its general zoological features with a more detailed description of the hard parts of the animals; secondly, its classification and the characters of the important genera, with remarks on the affinities of some forms; and thirdly, a description of the present distribution, and the geological range. The account of each genus is followed by the enumeration of typical species, so as to guide the student in making use of a large collection. The numerous figures help to explain the structure and terminology. For a number of years, Woods' Pal'ontology held its place as the standard work on the subject.

This authoritative guide to invertebrate paleontology was first published in 1914. Henry Woods, a leading British paleontologist, provides a detailed overview of the principles of invertebrate evolution and taxonomy, with special emphasis on trilobites, echinoderms, and mollusks. With its clear prose and detailed illustrations, this book remains an essential reference for paleontologists and natural history enthusiasts.

The first introductory palaeontology text which demonstrates the importance of selected fossil groups in geological and biological studies, particularly in understanding evolutionary patterns, palaeoenvironmental analysis, and stratigraphy. Part one explores several key concepts, such as the processes of fossil preservation, the determination of evolutionary patterns, and use of fossils and statigraphical tools. Part two introduces the main fossil groups of value in these applied fields. Part three concentrates on the examination of important case histories which demonstrate the use of fossils in diverse practical examples. Evolutionary studies, palaeoenvironmental analysis, and stratigraphical applications are documented using up-to-date examples supported by overviews of the principles.

Excerpt from Invertebrate Palaeontology: An Introduction to the Study of Fossils "The following pages are dedicated to the service of those Admirers of Fossils who have not yet entered into a strict examination of the distinctive characters of these interesting substances." Thus, almost a century ago, James Parkinson opened his Outlines of Oryctology. The "Study of Fossil Organic Remains" has advanced so far that the monographs of its pioneers retain little more than bibliographic and historical values. The apostolic succession of Palaeontologists is one of progress; while the great names of old are rightly held in reverence, the opinions and philosophies of early workers have no better claim to authority than the upstart "heresies" of the current generation. The truths that they discovered must endure for all time as imperishable foundations for the Science; their theories must be tried in the fire kindled by their research. If the test ends in destruction of old beliefs, let it be remembered that theory and hypothesis are the fuel without which the flame of Science would soon grow dim; and from the furnace flows an ever-growing stream of pure knowledge. Nevertheless, the sentence quoted expresses the purpose and dedication of this book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

How could life have started on Earth and how did it proceed? After a short discussion on the origin of life on Earth and the origin of the major body plans the invertebrates are presented in the order of increasing complexity by the most significant fossil representatives. In each case, the adaptive significance of the respective forms and/or structures which more or less profoundly changed the original body plan is treated in detail. In the closing chapter, some general aspects of invertebrates in evolution and palaeoecology, palaeobiogeography and biochronology are outlined.
