Velik del slovenskega ozemlja je zgrajen iz mezozojskih, to je triasnih, jurskih in krednih karbonatnih kamnin, katerih pomemben delež sestavljajo koralni grebeni. Ti so v Sloveniji mestoma tako obsežni, da se prištevajo med največje in najbogatejše v svetu. Njihovi glavni graditelji so korale, ki jih avtorica raziskuje že vrsto let. Knjiga združuje rezultate vseh dosedanjih del in jih dopolnjuje z najnovejšimi raziskavami doma in s sodobnimi ugotovitvami v svetu. Po enotnem sistemu je predstavljenih 211 vrst koral, ki po starosti sodijo v zgornji trias, zgornjo juro ter spodnjo in zgornjo kredo.
