Pleistocene Extinctions. The Search for a Cause.

P.S. Martin and H.E. Wright, editors.

Some attribute the extinctions to human agency, some to climate and habitat change and some to a combination of both factors. Includes a brief consideration of the New Zealand Moa extinctions. Photographs, drawings, maps, diagrams and tables.
