Review: A Wonderful Book on 21st Century Dinosaur Paleontology! 5 Stars.. - I loved this fascinating book! For me Dinosaurs Rediscovered is a primer on scientific methodology that relates how our understanding of dinosaurs continues to evolve. The core of this engaging book describes how recent advances and breakthroughs in investigative paleobiology have radically changed the field of Dinosaur paleontology. Dinosaur paleobiology has gone from a speculative field to an authentic scientific discipline within the span of 20 years due to advances in technology and a wealth of recent fossil discoveries. This book is written in a layperson-friendly style. The author’s love for dinosaurs is palpable, and makes this book a page-turning, riveting read from one subject to the next. The author is a distinguished professor of Paleontology himself, and I appreciated the fact he was intimately involved with the many of the discoveries enthusiastically related in this tome. There are many thought provoking subjects in Dinosaurs Rediscovered. As a dinosaur enthusiast I was aware of the devastation the infamous 7km asteroid impact caused to late Cretaceous ecosystems 66 million years ago. But I was amazed to learn that this presumed extinction event was likely a smaller piece of an as-yet-unsolved saurian puzzle. The most thought provoking subject matter presented (in my opinion) relates to the impact volcanic activity played in the rise and subsequent fall of the Dinosaurs. Imagine a series of massive volcanic eruptions on Earth lasting hundreds or maybe thousands of years! The author argues convincingly that massive volcanic eruptions in the Late Triassic Period allowed Dinosaurs to opportunistically thrive and later dominate the Earth for millions of years. Ironically, these same volcanic upheavals in the late Cretaceous period had the opposite effect on Saurian longevity and hastened their extinction for reasons the author convincingly postulates . Dinosaurs Rediscovered is an engaging book that any dinosaur enthusiast will have difficulty putting down. The many illustrations, charts, and useful diagrams all help elucidate research findings and allow for trend clarification of many talking points. One of my favorite aspects of this book is the authors ability to persuade his audience with near-irrefutable data. I also appreciate his open-mindedness and willingness to embrace new theories, discoveries, and ideas. We know much about Dinosaurs already-or do we? After reading this book I get the sense that the future burns bright for the paleontology discipline. Dinosaurs Rediscovered would make a great gift for any Dinosaur enthusiast in my opinion-although a background in science might be helpful to appreciate many of the books finer science-oriented merits. I look forward to reading more books from this noteworthy and distinguished author. 5 stars!
Review: Dinosaurs, the tour - There has been an explosion over recent decades in scientific knowledge and speculation about dinosaurs and this book is like hiring a top scientist in the field to take the reader on a tour through Jurassic Park (actually throughout the periods when dinosaurs lived). It is more a book about the scientific method than a comprehensive look at the dinosaur tree. Individual species are showcased and illustrated to make a point. The writing is not mind-numbingly academic at all and is geared to the casual reader interested in the subject as I am. This ability to explain a complicated scientific subject to an Average Joe is a rare skill bestowed on few and Michael Benton is one of the lucky ones to exhibit this skill. I read it a chapter an evening and enjoyed the ride. Highly recommended for any dinosaur freak or even anyone who ever wondered how fast T. rex ran.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice intro to modern paleontology
*by A***R on August 4, 2020*

As a scientist in a different field I have always been somewhat skeptical about some of the claims made by paleontologists. After reading this book I found it very interesting to learn some of there methods and their subsequent discoveries. Overall a very good book.
