1	Catastrophes and Lesser Calamities: The Causes of Mass Extinctions more books like this by Tony Hallam, A Hallam add to wishlist This is a book about the dramatic periods in the Earth's history called mass extinctions - short periods (by geological standards) when life nearly died out on Earth. The most famous is the mass extinction that happened about 65 million years ago, and that caused the death of the dinosaurs. But that was not the worst mass extinction: that honour ... see all copies from $7.34! new only from $11.64! \| first editions \| SVS
2	An outline of Phanerozoic biogeography more books like this by Hallam add to wishlist Palaves biogeographic research over the last twenty years or so has been galvarized by the general acceptance of plate tectonics and, hence, of the orrurrence of continental drift. This study, written by an internationally respected author of palaeontological books from student to professional levels, is the first to synthesize this research.

11	Evolution and Extinction more books like this by W G Chaloner (Editor), Professor Anthony Hallam (Editor) add to wishlist There has been much debate as to whether the pace and nature of evolutionary change is gradual and more or less constant, or whether it is of an erratic, pulsed nature. Linked to this is the related question of whether so called 'mass extinctions' seen in the fossil record are merely the result of a wide range of extinction phenomena, or whether ... see all copies from $62.89!
