Sumario:This book provides a comprehensive review of the fossil record of the Carpathian Basin. The book describes and illustrates the region's fossils, recounts their history, and tells the stories of key people involved in paleontological research in the area.

The region's fossils range from tiny foraminifera to the Transylvanian dinosaurs, mastodons, and mammals. The book also gives nonspecialists the opportunity to gain a basic understanding of paleontology. Sidebars present brief biographies of important figures and explain how to collect, prepare, and interpret fossils.
