The great dinosaur discoveries by
Darren Naish(
Book
)
17 editions published between 2009 and 2010 in 3 languages and held by 716 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"This illustrated volume is a journey through more than two centuries of remarkable discovery. Books on dinosaurs are usually arranged by classification or epoch, but this unique work tells the story chronologically, in order of the key finds that shaped our understanding and brought these creatures to life for the public. From the fragmentary remains of giant extinct animals found in the early 1800s, to the dinosaur wars in the American West to the amazing near-complete skeletons found around the world today, Darren Naish tells how these discoveries have led not only to the recognition of new species and whole new groups, but also to new theories of evolutionary history."--Jacket

Walking with dinosaurs : the evidence by
David M Martill(
Book
)
6 editions published in 2000 in English and Undetermined and held by 183 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The Evidence goes beyond the fascinating material in Walking with Dinosaurs, the best-selling book that accompanied the phenomenally successful TV series. The Evidence covers the methods of the research processes that formed the backbone of the series. How was the information obtained, what suppositions have been made, and how did this translate to the programs? Around 250 million years ago dinosaurs first began to walk the earth, dominating the planet until their extinction 65 million years ago. In this incredible Mesozoic period lasting 170 million years, these creatures were the dominant animals on land. Walking with Dinosaurs-The Evidence explores the archeologists' and scientists' discoveries and shows how they piece together the lives of these fascinating creatures. Comprehensively illustrated, the book explains how the bones of dinosaurs and the ground in which they're found in can lead to conclusions about feeding habits, movement, mating, habitat, and the climate of the time
