We are pleased to announce the posting, on the website of the American
Malacological Society, of the Second Edition of the following publication:
Eugene V. Coan, Alan R. Kabat & Richard E. Petit (2005), "2,400 Years of
Malacology," online at:
http://erato.acnatsci.org/ams/publications/epubs.html
http://erato.acnatsci.org/ams/publications/2400_malacology.html
This publication is a comprehensive catalog of biographical and
bibliographical papers on malacologists, conchologists, paleontologists, and others with an
interest in mollusks.
Since the first edition was posted, in June 2004, we have received comments
and additions from a number of colleagues -- for which we are most grateful --
and we have continued our own searching through the extensive literature.
Among the biographical references that are included for the first time in the
second edition are: Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (2004); M.R.
Carriker (2004), Taming of the Oyster: A History of Evolving Shellfisheries and
the National Shellfisheries Association; D.M. Damkaer (2002), The
Copepodologist's Cabinet: a Biographical and Bibliographical History; and R.V. Egorov
(2004), Directory of Malacologists and Conchologists of the CIS and Adjacent
Countries (formerly the USSR).
This catalog is a work in progress, and we will be posting updated versions
periodically. We encourage readers to explore and use this catalog, and we
look forward to receiving your comments.
