When the "The Dinosauria "was first published more than a decade
ago, it was hailed as the best scholarly reference work available
on dinosaurs and an historically unparalleled compendium of
information. This second, fully revised edition continues in the
same vein as the first but encompasses the recent spectacular
discoveries that have continued to revolutionize the field. A
state-of-the-science view of current world research, the volume
includes comprehensive coverage of dinosaur systematics,
reproduction, and life history strategies, biogeography, taphonomy,
paleoecology, thermoregulation, and extinction. Its internationally
renowned authorsOCoforty-four specialists on the various members of
the DinosauriaOCocontribute definitive descriptions and
illustrations of these magnificent Mesozoic beasts. The first
section of "The Dinosauria "begins with the origin of the great
clade of these fascinating reptiles, followed by separate coverage
of each major dinosaur taxon, including the Mesozoic radiation of
birds. The second part of the volume navigates through broad areas
of interest. Here we find comprehensive documentation of dinosaur
distribution through time and space, discussion of the interface
between geology and biology, and the paleoecological inferences
that can be made through this link. This new edition will be the
benchmark reference for everyone who needs authoritative
information on dinosaurs."
