Phylogenetic analysis and morphometrics have been developed by
biologists into rigorous analytic tools for testing hypotheses
about the relationships between groups of species. This book
applies these tools to paleontological data. The fossil record is
our one true chronicle of the history of life, preserving a set of
macroevolutionary patterns; thus various hypotheses about
evolutionary processes can be tested in the fossil record using
phylogentic analysis and morphometrics. The first book of its type,
Fossils, Phylogeny, and Form will be useful in evolutionary
biology, paleontology, systematics, evolutionary development,
theoretical biology, biogeography, and zoology. It will also
provide a practical, researcher-friendly gateway into
computer-based phylogenetics and morphometrics.
