Excerpt from The Carboniferous Ammonoids of America Dr. John C. Branner, of Leland Stanford Junior University, formerly State geologist of Arkansas, for the Opportunity of studying the collections of Carboniferous cephalopods made by the geological survey of Arkansas. Dr. Stuart Weller, of the University of Chicago, for the opportunity of studying the Gurley collection (the richest in the United States in Carboniferous ammonoids), for the loan of specimens and drawings, and for much valuable assistance. Prof. Alpheus Hyatt, for the loan of specimens and for valuable advice and suggestions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This two-volume work is a testament to the abiding interest and human fascination with ammonites. We offer a new model to explain the morphogenesis of septa and the shell, we explore their habitats by the content of stable isotopes in their shells, we discuss the origin and later evolution of this important clade, and we deliver hypotheses on its demise. The Ammonoidea produced a great number of species that can be used in biostratigraphy and possibly, this is the macrofossil group, which has been used the most for that purpose. Nevertheless, many aspects of their anatomy, mode of life, development or paleobiogeographic distribution are still poorly known. Themes treated are biostratigraphy, paleoecology, paleoenvironment, paleobiogeography, evolution, phylogeny, and ontogeny. Advances such as an explosion of new information about ammonites, new technologies such as isotopic analysis, tomography and virtual paleontology in general, as well as continuous discovery of new fossil finds have given us the opportunity to present a comprehensive and timely "state of the art" compilation. Moreover, it also points the way for future studies to further enhance our understanding of this endlessly fascinating group of organisms.
