Excerpt from Biology and Paleobiology of Ostracoda: A Symposium, University of Delaware 14-17 August, 1972The tenure of the Ostracoda is about 105 times longer than the oldest Egyptian construction or the notations of the ancient engineers and tradesmen. And yet there are corollaries in the application of principles of the science of statics that prophesied the ability Of the pyramids to withstand the test of time, and understanding of these same principles of structural reaction that permitted the continuance and repetition of some kinds of ostracode carapace form. In fact the ostracodes probably have employed more sophisticated design principles than did the ancient Egyptians.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
