First published in Great Britain earlier in 1991 by Belhaven Press (a division of Pinter Publishers), this is the first modern survey of taphonomy, the scientific study of the processes and patterns of fossilization. It provides an up-to-date review of taphonomic principles and methods, emphasizing sedimentological and paleoenvironmental evidence, as well as that provided by fossil material itself.
