This The Complete Encyclopedia of Fossils sets out the history of life on earth that is written in stone. The remains of animals and plants - sometimes astonishingly well preserved - are revealed through color photographs. The more fragmentary remnants often require considerable scientific experience and access to large collections for comparison in order to be able to determine which species they belong to. Plants and animals are represented here from the simpliest most primitive forms to those whose close descendants we can recognize today.
Within the pages of this book we travel back in time across millions of years and witness the development of life on our plant earth.
