The Middle through Late Pennsylvanian was a time of ice ages, climate dynamics and a turning point in terrestrial biotic evolution. This provides a laboratory for studying changes in a glacial world. This book focuses on a dynamic Late Pennsylvanian world that bears close comparison to the late Cenozoic world.
