Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Text-book of paleontology (German Edition)
(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Karl Alfred Ritter von Zittel
Edit ProfileEducation
He was educated at Heidelberg, Paris and Vienna.
Career
In 1863 Zittel became an assistant to the royal mineral cabinet of Vienna and professor of mineralogy, geognosy, and paleontology at the Karlsruhe Polytechnic. In 1866 he became professor of geology and paleontology at the University of Munich. His early research was in minerals and petrography. As the geologist of an expedition to Libya in 1873–74, Zittel collected the evidence leading to his conclusion about the Sahara. He later accepted evolution and led in applying the theory to paleontology, especially in his studies of ammonites. In 1876 he began his work on fossil sponges, which established their classification and laid a basis for the classification of modern forms. His principal contributions to vertebrate paleontology dealt with turtle and pterodactyl fossils found in the Bavarian limestones.
Zittel’s best-known works include Geschichte der Geologie und Paläontologie (1899; History of Geology and Palaeontology) and Handbuch der Palaeontologie (1880–93), a comprehensive survey of paleobiology.
