Publisher's Synopsis
Birds With Teeth is a scientific book written by Othniel Charles Marsh and published in 1883. The book explores the concept of birds having teeth, which was a controversial topic at the time. Marsh examines the fossil records of various bird species and presents evidence that some birds did indeed have teeth in their evolutionary history. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of bird evolution and the development of teeth. Marsh discusses the anatomy of teeth in birds, how they are used for feeding and defense, and how they evolved over time. He also delves into the classification of bird species and how their teeth are related to their evolutionary history.Throughout the book, Marsh presents detailed illustrations and diagrams to support his arguments and provide a visual representation of the bird species he is discussing. He also includes extensive footnotes and references to other scientific literature, making this book a valuable resource for researchers and scholars interested in the evolution of birds.Overall, Birds With Teeth is a groundbreaking work that challenged traditional beliefs about bird anatomy and evolution. Marsh's research and analysis helped to expand our understanding of the diversity and complexity of the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
