Plant remains can preserve a critical part of history of life on
Earth. While telling the fascinating evolutionary story of plants
and vegetation across the last 500 million years, this book also
crucially offers non-specialists a practical guide to studying,
dealing with and interpreting plant fossils. It shows how various
techniques can be used to reveal the secrets of plant fossils and
how to identify common types, such as compressions and impressions.
Incorporating the concepts of evolutionary floras, this second
edition includes revised data on all main plant groups, the latest
approaches to naming plant fossils using fossil-taxa and techniques
such as tomography. With extensive illustrations of plant fossils
and living plants, the book encourages readers to think of fossils
as once-living organisms. It is written for students on
introductory or intermediate courses in palaeobotany,
palaeontology, plant evolutionary biology and plant science, and
for amateurs interested in studying plant fossils.
