- catalog abstract ""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 ... The authors have brought together succinct summaries of 14 of the better-known fossil Lagerstätten ... Following a general introduction to fossil Lagerstätten, each chapter deals with a single fossil site and follows the same format: 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. There is an appendix of relevant museums and suggestions for visiting the sites"--Page 4 of cover.".
