Isle of Wight natural history and archaeology

The Isle of Wight Flora, by Colin Pope, Lorna Snow & David Allen (modern flora). Published 2003. The Isle of Wight, a mere 147 miles in area, is, for it's size, remarkably rich in plants. The maritime location of the Island, off the south coast of Britain, ensures a climate without extremes. The Island's varied geology gives rise to a range of landscapes that is unique - a microcosm of southern England. The Island is home to a suprisingly large number of scarce plants, but it is the sheer variety of habitats in close proximity - woodland, saltmarsh, sand dune, shingle cliffs, woodlands, heathland and downland - that makes the flora so special.		£35.00 Hardback p&p £5

Dinosaur Eggs and Babies edited by Kenneth Carpenter, Karl F. Hirsch & John R. Horner Although it is over 100 years since O. C. Marsh first recognized a baby dinosaur, that of the saurapod Pleurocoelus, renewed interest stems from the discovery of a nesting ground in western Montana in 1978, and the realization that the study of baby dinosaur bones, eggs and embryonic remains can tell us a great deal about dinosaur behaviour, reproduction and physiology. This is the first book solely devoted to this topic and reviews, in scientific detail, our present state of knowledge about this exciting area of paleontology. Chapters in the book discuss all aspects of the science including the occurance of eggs, nests and baby skeletons: descriptive osteology of juvenile skeletons; comparative history of juvenile bone; analyses of eggs and eggshells; paleoenvironments of nesting sites; nesting behaviour; and developmental growth of baby dinosaurs.

Dinosaur Tracks and Other Fossil Footprints of Europe by Martin Lockley & Christian Meyer The long and distinguished tradition of traking dinosaurs and other extinct animals in Europe dates back to the 1830's. Yet this venerable tradition of scientific activity cannot compair in magnitude and scope with the unprecedented spate of discovery and documentation of the last few years. Now, following on the heels of his Dinosaur Tracks and Other Fossil Footprints of the Western United States, Martin Lockley teams up with Christian Meyer to present an up-to-date syntheis of the recent findings in the field of European fossil footprints. Drawing extensively on their own reasearch results from studies in Britain, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain and elsewhere, the authors create a dynamic picture of mammal, reptile, bird and amphibian track-makers through more than 300 million years of vertebrate evolution, placed in the context of Europe's changing ancient environments. Beginning with an introduction to and history of the European tracking traditon. Dinosaur Tracks and Other Fossil Footprints of Europe charts a broad path through the Paleozoic evolutionary history of predinosaurian vertebrates to the Mesozoic rise of the dinosaurs and their eventual disappearance at the end of the Cretaceous. The survey continues into the age of mammals and birds, ending with the cave art and footprints of out Paleolithic ancestors.		£28.50

Volcanoes in the Galapagos, the Gossamer spider of Patagonia, the Australasian coral reefs and the brilliance of the firefly - all are to be found in these extraordinary writings. The insights made on the five year voyage were to set in motion the intellectual currents that led to the most controversial book of the Victorian age: The Origin of the Species. This volume reprints Charles Darwin's journal in a shortened form. It contains an introduction on the background to Darwin's work, as well as notes, maps, appendices and an essay on scientific geology and the Bible by Robert FitzRoy, Darwin's friend and captain of the Beagle.
