Synopsis

This study of the habits of dinosaurs covers how they ate, how they reproduced and how they moved. Robert Bakker's illustrations are based on first-hand studies of dinosaur exhibits in museums throughout the world. This book supports the view that dinosaurs were warm-blooded, intelligent and agile creatures bearing little resemblance to existing reptiles. More than 12 years ago, Robert Bakker provoked a heated controversy on this subject, opposing the widely held belief that dinosaurs were cold-blooded, lumbering and of low intelligence.

About this title

Synopsis:

This groundbreaking book reveals that, far from being sluggish reptiles, dinosaurs were actually agile, fast, warmblooded, and intelligent. The author explodes the old orthodoxies and gives us a convincing picture of how dinosaurs hunted, fed, mated, fought and died. Containing over 200 detailed illustrations, The Great Dinosaur Debate will enthrall "dinosaurmaniacs." It is a bold new look at the extraordinary reign and eventual extinction of the awesome behemoths who ruled the earth for 150 million years.
