Gregory Paul - The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs - Gables

Start: Oct 28 2010 6:30 pm

The lavishly illustrated The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs (Princeton U. Press, $35) is the first authoritative dinosaur book in the style of a field guide. World-renowned dinosaur illustrator, researcher, and film and documentary consultant (Jurassic Park) Gregory Paul provides comprehensive visual and textual coverage of the great Mesozoic animals that gave rise to the living dinosaurs, the birds. Incorporating the new discoveries and research that are radically transforming what we know about dinosaurs, it presents thorough descriptions of more than 735 dinosaur species and features more than 600 color and black-and-white images, including unique skeletal drawings, "life" studies, and scenic views—illustrations that depict the full range of dinosaurs, from small, feathered creatures to whale-sized supersauropods, giving us a taste of what it might be like to travel back to the time of the dinosaurs. Presented in collaboration with the Miami Science Museum.
