"For 2 distinct aspects, this book will be of interest to paleontologists who don't read Russian: (1) it is an important summary of changes in bivalve, gastropod, and scaphopod faunas at the Cretaceous-Cenozoic boundary, a topic of great current interest. [. . .] (2) It is a most useful entry into a large body of literature, much of it Russian literature that is poorly known in "the west"." - from the translators' preface, page i.
