Abstract

Dinosaur! One hundred and fifty years after being coined by Sir Richard Owen, that word still evokes wonder. Every so often, the world seems to enter into a period of dinosaur hysteria. In case you've failed to notice, we're in one now, and it's a whopper. A well..placed dinosaur can sell anything: hamburgers, pencil boxes, movies, and of course, books. But make no mistake, this is not just another book about dinosaurs. It is a classic work about exploration, discovery, and growth.
