Principles of Paleontology

When published in 1978, "Principles of Paleontology" by David Raup and Steven Stanley revolutionized both textbooks and teaching in paleontology. Now, Michael Foote and Arnold Miller, former students of Raup's, have stepped in to revise this classic text. It is their vision to take the core approach of the second edition, and reflect the substantial changes to the rudiments of the subject from the previous two decades. This third edition remains an excellent text for those studying geophysical sciences.
