In paleontology, a single bone can rewrite the history of an entire continent. This book is the story of a 160-million-year triumph of evolution. The author shatters the stereotype of dinosaurs as slow, cold-blooded reptiles doomed to extinction. Drawing on the latest discoveries—from the "pregnant" Tyrannosaurus B-rex to the feathered predators of China—the researcher reconstructs the lives of these rulers of the Mesozoic. How did their lungs with air sacs work, allowing them to grow to the size of whales? Why did they suffer from arthritis and bone cancer? What did their mating rituals really look like? This is a detailed biography of animals that not only ruled the planet, but shaped its landscape, trampling forests and turning lowlands into lakes.
