The discovery and study of vertebrate fossils is booming and textbooks have
relatively short shelf lives. The updated and enlarged second edition of
Vertebrate Palaeontology by Michael Benton covers everything from the
Abelisauridae (kind of dinosaur) to the Zhelestidae (early placental mammals).
Published in paperback by Chapman & Hall, 2nd edition, £24.99, ISBN
