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

["David L. Clark" <dlclarksr@xxxxxxxx>]

I don't think a reprinting is worth it.  While many of the
identifications are still valid for biostratigraphy, most biostratigraphy
that has developed during the past 30 years is far superior to most of
what is in this volume.  While it was a useful book many years ago, I
stopped using it at least 30 years ago, and gave my copy away at
retirement.
