"This volume brings together a number of modern treatments emphasizing theTriassic and Jurassic brachiopods of Israel and nearby countries. It provides aconvenient basic resource for students of the Triassic and Jurassic of this biogeographically important region. Important comments are made on the biogeography of the marine faunas, with emphasis on brachiopods, plus useful summaries of lithofacies relations through most of Triassic and Jurassic time for this region. There are also useful accounts on marine ecological phenomenaand depositional environments for some of the fossils. The illustrations areexcellent. The volume is highly recommended for paleontologists and stratigraphers."- Arthur J. Boucot, Distinguished Professor, Department of Zoology,Oregon State University
