The Princeton Field Guide to Predatory Dinosaurs

Arrived when expected. In great condition. Was as expected.

A good book if you are only interested in predatory dinosaurs, but largely the same content and images as the author's overall "The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs".

I bought this for my 13 year old grandson who has been a dinosaur expert since before he could talk. Has entire library of dinosaur books. He said this is the best book he has ever read!

Porque honestamente es solo una parte enfocada a teropodos de su versión completa de la guía de Princeton. Agrega sus polémicas especies de tyrannosaurus pero la estructura del libro es casi idéntica a la de su enciclopedia de Princeton.

I thought this new book might have a more comprehensive list of the newest dinosaur material, but I was sadly disappointed. A lot of the same old rehash of his earlier work which wasted a full half of the book, while there was little detail or mentioning of many of the newest found therapods worldwide. Some major therapods were simply clumped in with existing popular genera for no apparent reason, possibly authors nostalgia or lazy editing. With all the new tools available, if you're going to make a new and better edition then actually put some real effort into it. I expected better and Princeton press has been putting a lot of garbage out lately and calling them encyclopedias when they are just a mash of highly condensed material with little organization.
