Rereading the Fossil Record presents the first-ever historical
account of the origin, rise, and importance of paleobiology, from
the mid-nineteenth century to the late 1980s. Drawing on a wealth
of archival material, David Sepkoski shows how the movement was
conceived and promoted by a small but influential group of
paleontologists and examines the intellectual, disciplinary, and
political dynamics involved in the ascendency of paleobiology. By
tracing the role of computer technology, large databases, and
quantitative analytical methods in the emergence of paleobiology,
this book also offers insight into the growing prominence and
centrality of data-driven approaches in recent science.
