The Emergence of Whales: Evolutionary Patterns in the Origin of CetaceaJ.G.M. Thewissen Springer Science & Business Media, 31/10/1998 - 477 من الصفحات Research in whale origins is now in an explosive phase, with a cascade of discoveries adding to our understanding of the evolutionary pattern and a suite of new techniques being applied to address new questions. The objective of this volume is to provide a snapshot of this explosion. The volume paints the scene with a broad brush. Taken together the chapters clearly indicate that cetacean origins is a field that is dynamic, multidisciplinary, and that the end of the explosive phase is not in sight. |
