From the monstrous beasts stalking Jurassic Park to the curiosities of the natural history museum, dinosaurs are creatures that unite young and old in awestruck wonder. Digging ever deeper into dinosaurs' ancient past, science continues to unearth new knowledge about them and the world they inhabited, a fantastic time when the footprints of these behemoths marked the Earth that we humans now walk. Who better to guide us through this ancient world than paleontologist Mark A. Norell? A world-renowned expert in paleontology, with a knowledge of dinosaurs as deep as the buried fossils they left behind, Norell is in charge of what is perhaps America's most popular collection of dinosaur bones and fossils, the beloved displays at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. In The World of Dinosaurs, he leads readers through a richly illustrated collection detailing the evolution of these ancient creatures. From the horns of the Protoceratops to the wings of the Archaeopteryx, readers are invited to explore profiles of dinosaurs along with hundreds of color photographs, sketches, maps, and other materials--all rooted in the latest scientific discoveries--sure to both capture the imagination and satisfy a prehistoric curiosity. The World of Dinosaurs presents an astonishing collection of knowledge in an immersive visual journey that will fascinate any fan of Earth's ancient inhabitants.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimanalo P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 567.9 No Checked In Add Copy to MyList
