[Obtenir] (Epub) The Complete Dinosaur
By Michael K. Brett-Surman
What do we know about dinosaurs, and how do we know it? How did
dinosaurs grow, move, eat, and reproduce? Were they warm-blooded or
cold-blooded? How intelligent were they? How are the various groups of
dinosaurs related to each other, and to other kinds of living and extinct
vertebrates? What can the study of dinosaurs tell us about the process of
evolution? And why did typical dinosaurs become extinct? All of these
questions, and more, are addressed in the new, expanded, second edition
of The Complete Dinosaur. Written by many of the world's leading
experts on the "fearfully great" reptiles, the book's 45 chapters cover
what we have learned about dinosaurs, from the earliest discoveries of
dinosaurs to the most recent controversies. Where scientific contention
exists, the editors have let the experts agree to disagree. Copiously
illustrated and accessible to all readers from the enthusiastic amateur to
the most learned professional paleontologist, The Complete Dinosaur is a
feast
