am08279 | 4 muuta kirja-arvostelua | Oct 19, 2022 | The 2020 updated version of The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs and Prehistoric Creatures by Barry Cox is a wonderful addition to any library.
I was expecting simply a bunch of entries on prehistoric animals, which would have been great. But this book offers so much more. There is a big picture history, introductions to the evolutionary paths these animals took and where they diverged from each other. I often think of a specialized encyclopedia as being a whole made up of separate though related parts. This volume takes that necessary aspect of an encyclopedia and weaves the story of the Earth and life on Earth throughout the book.
I highly recommend this for anyone interested in dinosaurs and/or other prehistoric animals. It offers insight not only into the animals but into how we have come to learn what we now know.
Reviewed from a copy made available by the publisher via NetGalley.

THISTIMELUCKY | Apr 30, 2015 | This illustrated guide is a who's who of prehistoric animals. This books shows it's diversity through cataloging some 600 species. This really is a cool sourcebook and it's almost like perusing an art book.
