Hello all,
It's the beginning of the semester here and I have foolishly agreed 
to develop a course on Phanerozoic Paleoclimatology that will be 
offered to upper level undergraduates starting in January. I'm 
interested in opinions, suggestions, disillusionment, etc. with 
textbooks that cover Phanerozoic Paleoclimate. Because all of our 
undergraduates (~70 per year) pass through our isotope courses it 
would be most fortunate if the text was based largely or even partly 
on isotope records.

Because this request is a bit off the beaten path, it's probably best 
that you respond offlist. Any good suggestions will be rewarded with 
a beverage of choice at AGU or anywhere else that I get cornered. Any 
good suggestions on course material other than textbooks will also 
result in a reward.

Thanks!
Bill
