Editorial Reviews
"The book is generally well-written, and the subject has an appeal that extends beyond scientific curiosity. The insightful use of deductive logic to infer past events and circumstances . . . has a certain appeal .... There is more than enough information in this book to orm the basis of a good course on the subject matter."-Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin
