Hello! I’ve been looking for a textbook on paleobiology, vertebrate paleobiology, or paleoecology (or similar). Most of the options I’ve found online are, of course, for university courses, so the prices are outrageous and unjustifiable since I just want to read up on this stuff for fun. If you guys have a textbook lying around, please DM me! I am not willing to spend very much since this stuff is available online, but if anyone has anything, please message me! I would also be interested in general geology textbooks as well becuase I know they are foundational to what I want to read up on.
I’m especially interested in evolutionary relationships and family trees. I like the dinosaurs and how they evolved and stuff like that.I am also very interested in nonextinct species and how they evolved/ their family tree, too. I also like reading about the different time periods as well. From my research, paleobiology is the closest match to what I am looking for.
I almost majored in Geology, but never did, and it is just a great interest of mine. I am finally all done with school and want to get into this stuff. If you guys have any good ideas on websites I can read up on this stuff too please let me know. Thanks!
