Amphibian Evolution

Amphibian Evolution: The Life of Early Land Vertebrates, 1st Edition, examines vertebrate adaptation to terrestrial life over the past 370 million years.

The volume explores the origin of tetrapod traits and explains how anatomical structures transformed to allow survival out of water. Key themes include the diversity of early tetrapods, fossil preservation environments, soft-body anatomy, and the primary factors guiding their development and evolutionary history.

Published in collaboration with the Palaeontological Association within the Topics in Paleobiology Series, this book supports advanced undergraduates, postgraduate students, and researchers in paleobiology and biology.
