Description

Mass Extinction by P. David Polly from Springer explores the scientific history and understanding of extinction as a concept in Earth sciences. This comprehensive work traces how fossil evidence gradually transformed scientific thought from the 18th century onwards, moving away from interpretations that dismissed fossils as mineralizations or remains of undiscovered living species. Polly's research from Indiana University examines the pivotal shift in geological sciences that established extinction as a fundamental process shaping life on Earth. The book provides essential insights into palaeontology, evolutionary biology, and the mechanisms driving species loss throughout Earth's history.
