Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The collective force of these photographs just can't be put into words."--David Quammen "Outside " "Irresistible. [Levi-Setti] has given his collecting self a most precious gift. . . . A reader shares that gift, and many another, like the transient match between the giant trilobites of Newfoundland and those of the Anti-Atlas Mountains overseas, a pulse of evolutionary change while continents recede."--Philip Morrison "Scientific American " "Now at last we have a book that reveals in exquisite detail and admirable depth the nature of the most fascinating of ancient life: the trilobites. . . . This extraordinary group of primitive arthropods deserves wider appreciation, and I can think of no better way to find out more about them than to purchase of copy of this book, open it up, and just drink in page after page of pure trilobites."--Natural History

Reseña del editor:

Long before dinosaurs roamed the earth, prehistoric seas were populated by trilobites, whose fossils are favourites among collectors today. From the giant trilobites of Newfoundland to fascinating new specimens from Morocco, this book brings these "butterflies of the sea" to life for readers who are curious about our remote past This second edition features coverage of a greater variety of trilobites, an improved photographic atlas reorganized to present their evolutionary progression, and over 200 photographs.
