The author recounts the day-to-day drama of exploring Mongolia's Gobi Desert with an international team of scientists and finding one of the richest dinosaur sites ever discovered. Michael Novacek, Dean of Science at the American Museum of Natural History, led a team of international scientists to Mongolia's Gobi Desert on the greatest dinosaur expedition of the late twentieth century. Closed to the West since the 1920s and opened only to Michael Novacek's team, the remote sands of the Gobi Desert constitute the richest fossil site in the world. In "Dinosaurs of the Flaming Cliffs", Novacek takes the reader along with his team as he re-creates the day-to-day drama of field exploration over the last six years and recounts the remarkable discoveries that he and his colleagues unearthed. Following early years of relative disappointment, in 1993 the expedition discovered the richest cretaceous dinosaur site ever found, excavating fossils that have helped to reshape our understanding of the dinosaur and early mammal era. Interweaving the adventure of field research with chapters that offer in depth discussions on contemporary dinosaur research and science. Ref Z 7. Seller Inventory # 030092
