An Outline of Phanerozoic Biogeography by Anthony Hallam

The general acceptance of plate tectonics and continental drift by the early 1970s galvanized the study of biogeography from the evolution of multicellular life to the present day. However, until now the accumulated information has been widely scattered in the literature; this book is the first to synthesize the results of over two decades of prolific research into a clear concise format accessible to students of geology, geography, and biology and their teachers.
I enjoyed reading it and found it a useful, low-cost guide to the subjectI am sure that there will be many people preparing Earth History courses who will find this book a valuable review. This is a great book for undergraduates to delve into and is well worth having on your shelf and should be a must for any university Library. * Peter A.
