"This excellent book describes and illustrates 14 sites that range over about 560 million years....a Michelin-style guide to some of the world's best fossil sites." New Scientist "...well laid out, superbly illustrated, easy to use, very readable, and attractively priced.....This is a book that every palaeontological curator should have..." The Geological Curator "Well-written - engaging, easily read, with a very nice balance between general content and specific detail....this is an excellent book; it is much more than a pictoral guide to fossils, yet really does have that "wow-look at that" factor." Palaeontological Newsletter "Provides a well illustrated up to date account of most of the key lagerstatten, giving interested students and ethusiasts a very good entry to the vast literature on exceptional preservation." Geological Magazine "Highly recommended to professors and students as an innovative and effective way to approach palaeontology, as well as to any amateur enthusiasts wishing to take part on a very grand tour of fossil ecosystems in the history of our planet."
