## Description

A fully updated and expanded edition of the acclaimed, bestselling dinosaur field guide The bestselling Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs remains the must-have book for anyone who loves dinosaurs, from amateur enthusiasts to professional paleontologists. Now extensively revised and expanded, this dazzlingly illustrated large-format edition features nearly 100 new dinosaur species and hundreds of new and updated illustrations, bringing readers up to the minute on the latest discoveries and research that are radically transforming what we know about dinosaurs and their world. Written and illustrated by acclaimed dinosaur expert Gregory Paul, this stunningly beautiful book includes detailed species accounts of all the major dinosaur groups as well as a wealth of breathtaking images—skeletal drawings, “life” studies, scenic views, and other illustrations that depict the full range of dinosaurs, from small feathered creatures to whale-sized supersauropods. Paul’s extensive introduction delves into dinosaur history and biology, the extinction of nonavian dinosaurs, the origin of birds, and the history of dinosaur paleontology, and also gives a taste of what it might be like to travel back in time to the era when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Now covers more than 800 dinosaur species, including scores of newly discovered ones Provides startling perspectives on the famed Brontosaurus and Tyrannosaurus Reveals that the largest dinosaurs weighed as much as the biggest whales, and shows why that happened Features hundreds of color and black-and-white drawings and figures, including life studies, scenic views, and skull and muscle drawings Includes color paleo-distribution maps and a color time line Describes anatomy, physiology, locomotion, reproduction, and growth of dinosaurs, as well as the origin of birds and the extinction of nonavian dinosaurs

Review: Made my granddaughter smile for days. - I have a precocious 12 year old granddaughter who is well on her way to becoming a paleontologist. The smiles this book created when she opened it make it a priceless volume. This is NOT a pretty picture book bought for entertainment, it's a useful reference for anyone with a serious interest in the subject.
Review: A surprise update of Greg Paul's dinosaur field guide, but still worth a read - I didn't think that Gregory Paul would write a third edition of his field guide to non-avian dinosaurs, but after reading this book, I am quite surprised that he listed Stegosaurus ungulatus as "Stegotitanus" because S. ungulatus and S. stenops are the same genus and Sinornithosaurus haoianus as "Jeholraptor" because haoianus is now seen as a junior synonym of Sinornithosaurus millenii. I respectfully disagree with his referral of Apatosaurus louisae to Brontosaurus and his statement about Tuebingosaurus being a very mature Plateosaurus because A. louisae is more similar to A. ajax and Tuebingosaurus has been clearly demonstrated to be a sauropod relative irrespective of how mature it is, and the T. rex-related taxonomic scheme published by him in 2022 and included in this book has been refuted by Stephen Brusatte and others, who reject the taxonomic criteria used by Paul to create the new species T. imperator and T. regina for a few T. rex specimens (one Tyrannosaurus specimen from New Mexico has been recently described as the new species T. mcraeensis). Nevertheless, I'm glad that Gregory Paul has taken note of the paper published by Andrew Moore and colleagues in 2018 demonstrating that Bellusaurus sui is morphologically distinct from Klamelisaurus gobiensis despite known specimens of Bellusaurus being juvenile.
