Dinosaur Extinction -- LITERATURE CITED -- CONTRIBUTORS -- GENERA AND SPECIES INDEX -- STRATIGRAPHIC AND GEOGRAPHIC INDEX -- SUBJECT INDEXWhen 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 authors-forty-four specialists on the various members of the Dinosauria-contribute 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.DinosaursReptiles, Fossilarchaeology.avian dinosaurs.biogeography.biology.dinosaur biology.dinosaur distribution.dinosaur life history.dinosaur reproduction.dinosaur science.dinosaur systematics.dinosaurs.extinction.fossils.geology.mesozoic period.mesozoic radiation of birds.natural history.non avian dinosaurs.ornithischia.paleoecology.paleontology.reptiles.saurischia.scientists.species.taphonomy.thermoregulation.world research.Dinosaurs.Reptiles, Fossil.567.9WH 7390rvkWeishampel David B.1952-1540713Dodson Peter1579616Osmólska Halszka1579617MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778488403321The dinosauria3859816UNINA
