A Grown Up Guide To Dinosaurs by Guy Garrod

A brisk, myth-busting tour of modern dinosaur science, this guide replaces movie clichés with up-to-date discoveries on how these animals looked, lived, evolved, and died. It explains how researchers read fossils to uncover behavior, growth, coloration, feathers, and metabolism; highlights cutting-edge tools from CT scans to biomechanical modeling; explores ecosystems and mass extinctions; and shows how birds carry the dinosaur legacy today, making deep time and paleontology engaging and accessible for curious adults.
