AM To: dinosaur@usc.edu Subject: The origin of
birds
I have been looking for a book going by the name
'The origin of birds' by Gerhard Heillmann for several years now o no
avail. I feel it must be a very important book as most
palaeontologists list it as a source on their publications and from what I can
gather, it founded the very basis of our view on bird relationships and
evolution. It is for these reasons that I would like to get hold of a
copy - the only problem being it went out of print around 50 years ago and
most antique book dealers have never heard of it. I am now fairly
desperate and ask you all if you have any hints, suggestions as to how to
obtain a copy. Maybe you have a spare you could sell to me,
whatever. I would be very grateful for any advice or links on the
subject,
yours sincerely,
Samuel Barnett
