An Outline of Phanerozoic Biogeography

The general acceptance of plate tectonics and continental drift by the early 1970s galvanized the study of biogeography of the whole period 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 form accessible to students of geology, geography, and biology and their teachers. A comprehensive bibliography is provided for those wishing to pursue the subject in greater depth.
