This extensively illustrated book, the first major review of
Lebanese amber, covers all aspects of the highly valued resin,
including its origin and its role as a commodity in ancient
cultures. Paleontologists, biologists, and evolutionists will
appreciate the book's new information, along with its summary of
early research and its analysis of what amber fossils reveal about
insect diversification, biogeography, extinction, and survival.
