Ideal for science and non-science majors alike, the refreshing tone and robust content of this classic introduction to dinosaurs invites students to evaluate scientific data critically. In this fifth edition, Dinosaurs has been thoroughly revised to reflect major new discoveries up into 2026, including insights into dinosaur soft anatomy using sophisticated imaging and geochemical techniques. New to this edition are stunning illustrations by paleontological artist Fabio Manucci, chosen to complement and enhance John Sibbick's original artwork. These, along with many new photographs and the enhanced text, highlight how dinosaurs looked, lived, and shaped Earth history. Making the science accessible through clear explanations and with lavish illustrations, Dinosaurs sequentially navigates students through the dinosaur groups, emphasizing scientific concepts instead of litanies of dinosaur names. Grounded in the common language of modern evolutionary biology - phylogenetic systematics - students learn to think about dinosaurs like professional palaeontologists.
