"… the most ambitious and comprehensive survey of bone paleohistology, designed to be relevant to those working on extant species too. There is no other book on the subject anywhere close to it in its broad scope.
It is wonderful to see a field that flourishes based on new information and careful consideration of the biology and taphonomy of the evidence.
This book hopefully stimulates by its sheer size and scope ..."
Marcelo R. Sánchez-Villagra in Swiss Journal of Palaeontology, v. 141, 2022
"The texts … are very good, of course, but the illustrations are outstanding. There is so much information presented … that a proper summary of their contents would be a book in itself. … the greatest value of the book comes from the sheer number of photographs and other images of thin sections of different bone tissues …"

Vertebrate Skeletal Histology and Paleohistology summarizes decades of research into the biology and biological meaning of hard tissues, in both living and extinct vertebrates. In addition to outlining anatomical diversity, it provides fundamental phylogenetic and evolutionary contexts for interpretation. Les mer
Vertebrate Skeletal Histology and Paleohistology summarizes decades of research into the biology and biological meaning of hard tissues, in both living and extinct vertebrates. In addition to outlining anatomical diversity, it provides fundamental phylogenetic and evolutionary contexts for interpretation. An international team of leading authorities review the impact of ontogeny, mechanics, and environment in relation to bone and dental tissues. Synthesizing current advances in the biological problems of growth, metabolism, evolution, ecology, and behavior, this comprehensive and authoritative volume is built upon a foundation of concepts and technology generated over the past fifty years.
