Re: paleonet Does this book merit being brought back into print?

Andrea:
Yes, I think it would be worth being brought back into print. I use my copy pretty often, and consider it one of the more useful paleontology books. The content has not changed enormously even though it is quite an old book, so it isn't the kind of book to become obsolete in the same way that, say, textbooks would over the decades.

We are especially interested in scientific and technical titles. In several
recent conversations, the following title has been mentioned to us as worth
looking at for reprinting. We'd very much appreciate your reaction to this
suggestion.

"Index Fossils of North America" by Harvey W. Shimer and Robert Rakes
Shrock, originally published in 1944.

Does this title merit being brought back into print and made available
again?

Of course, we'd also be delighted to hear about any other titles you think
would merit bringing back into print and made available again.

Please respond directly to me. Many thanks.
