Revision Request:

Dear Colleagues:

If you have a copy of our book Paleobotany: The Biology and Evolution of Fossil Plants by Tom Taylor, Edie Taylor, and Michael Krings (Academic Press, 2009) the authors have a favor to ask.  In anticipation of a second print run, the authors would like to pick up any typos, etc. that you might have found while reading.  If you could send these in an e-mail message to Tom Taylor, that would be most appreciated.

Thanks for your help. Tom, Edie, and Michael
