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

I used this book for study almost thirty years ago. The updated version is still the bench mark text on the subject.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Treatment of a Fascinating Field of Study
Reviewed in the United States on 5 May 2007

Dr. Clarkson presents a detailed and informative summary of all major aspects of invertebrate evolution. The book is organized in a step-wise fashion that introduces the reader to the main principles of the field of paleontology (including genetics, populations and micro- and macroevolution) and then moves into detailed descriptions of the various invertebrate phyla. Be aware that this is not your typical coffee table book; rather, it is written at a level best appreciated by those with a biological background or by introductory students in this field. Descriptions are appropriately detailed and concise and are accompanied by a wealth of similarly detailed drawings and images. I particularly enjoyed his chapters on molluscs, echinoderms and crinoids. It is a valuable accompaniment to other books that have been written on the Burgess Shale and early forms of non-vertebrate life. Both the armchair paleontologist and the professional will find this to be a most valuable addition to his or her collection of books on this wonderfully diverse group of ancient animals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hervorragendes Kompendium
Reviewed in Germany on 24 September 2008
Verified Purchase
Ein hervorragendes Werk, das für Studenten der Bio- und Geowissenschaften sicherlich gleichermaßen zu empfehlen ist wie für interessierte Amateure. Es sollte in keiner guten (Fach-)Bibliothek fehlen.
Auf 452 Seiten werden auf anschaulichen Schwarz-Weiss-Abbildungen die einzelnen Organsimengruppen in ihrem Aufbau erläutert, ihre Lebensweise und Evolution beschrieben. Dabei findet sich zu jedem Kapitel ein reichhaltiges Quellenverzeichnis, das die spezielle Vertiefung ermöglicht. Einleitende Kapitel zu allgemeinen evolutiven und paläontologischen Grundlagen sowie das abschließende Kapitel, das besondere Fossillerhaltungen und Spurenfossilien zusammenfasst runden dieses sehr zu empfehlende Lehrbuch ab.
