Chapter 1.- History of the NOW. Chapter 2.- The NOW now. Chapter 3.- The Siwaliks: A Miocene terrestrial record densely sampled at age resolution of 105 years. Chapter 4.- Evolution of Western Asian mammal communities in the Miocene. Chapter 5.- The fall of the Pikermian paleobiome at the crossroads of the European-Asian-African continents. Chapter 6.- Islands in Transition: Changes in Mammalian Communities on Africa and South America. Chapter 7.- Environmental change and body size evolution in Neogene large mammals of Europe and North America. Chapter 8.- Body mass effects to the mammalian Niche Exploitation Profiles and to the predictions of Climate and Seasonality of Tropical Extant and Palaeo-habitats. Chapter 9.- The mouse is dead, long live the mouse (Patterns of longevity in small mammals). Chapter 10.- How often do mammalian species of the same genus co-occur in the fossil record and today? Chapter 11.- Cut not shaven, the use of filters in processing data. Chapter 12.- The effects of NOW data quality, including regional and temporal differences, on evolutionary analysis; examples from studies on large Neogene carnivore families. Chapter 13.- Asynchroneity in the evolution of New World and Old World hypsodont Equidae. Chapter 14.- Muskdeer on the run - Dispersal of Moschidae in the context of environmental changes. Chapter 15.- Late Neogene Western Eurasian bovid palaeocommunities. Chapter 16.- New giraffid determinations for the faunas of Pikermi, Samos and Maragheh. Chapter 17.- Regional topography and climate influence the nature and timing of changes in the structure of rodent and lagomorph communities through the Cenozoic of North America. Chapter 18.- Diet and locomotor trends in rodents during Cenozoic global cooling. Chapter 19.- Using diachronic biogeographic patterns of mammalian dispersals between Africa and Eurasia to infer about tempo and mode of the dispersal of the genus Homo.
