Exceptional Fossil Preservation: A Unique View on the Evolution of Marine Life - The Critical Moments and Perspectives in Earth History and Paleobiology

This photographically rich volume provides a synthetic overview of a wide sample of Lagerstatten from marine environments reaching back in time to the Precambrian, more than 500 million years ago. These occurrences of exceptional fossil preservation are providing scientists with a new source of evidence to understand how life has evolved in the Earth's oceans.
