Fossils in Amber: Remarkable Snapshots of Prehistoric Forest Life

There are many books on fossils in amber, but few can claim to be packed with visually stunning photographs, which is where the current work stands out from the rest.

Fossils in Amber: Remarkable snapshots of prehistoric forest life is a well written and spectacular visual guide to amber palaeontology, combining the different talents of the two authors; Dr David Penney is a world renowned amber palaeobiologist and Dr David Green is a highly skilled expert in photomicroscopy.

It is fully referenced throughout and written in a clear, easily understandable manner, which makes it accessible to amateurs as well as professionals. It should have a broad appeal, and will be of interest to both amateur and professional entomologists, palaeontologists and anyone interested in natural history and photography, or to those with a general interest in amber.
