You'll never need to decide whether that massive beast lumbering through your front yard is Chasmosaurus belli or C. sternbergi , but if you did, this would be a handy book to have on your windowsill. . . . [A]s dinosaur guidebooks go, this is as carefully assembled and authoritative as they come. ---Laurence A. Marschall, Natural History, A fantastic new book on dinosaurs. . . . Paul is an accomplished illustrator and expert in all things dinosaurian. The first 60 pages of the book provide an introduction to dinosaur biology, morphology and techniques for studying these fossils. The information on how the limbs of dinosaurs articulated is particularly intriguing. . . . His fine illustrations provide nice accents to the text. The meat of the book is the coverage of individual dinosaur species. ---Herb Wilson, Portland Press Herald, [This second edition] reflects the dramatic increase in our knowledge of the Dinosauria that has taken place over the last five years or so. . . . [Paul's] latest book, The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs , has clearly been a labour of love for this leading dinosaur illustrator and researcher. It is crammed full of fascinating information, beautiful drawings and the author's trademark skeletal reconstructions. [It is] a must­have for avid dinosaur fans as well as appealing to the general reader with an interest in how some of the most spectacular lifeforms to have ever existed on our planet evolved and flourished. ---Everything Dinosaur Blog,, "A fantastic new book on dinosaurs. . . .

Paul's most recent book--the 2010 The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs --is, simply put, the ultimate Greg Paul book. It's a large, heavily illustrated catalogue of over 400 reconstructed skeletons, accompanied throughout with life restorations and brief chunks of text that present data on the world's Mesozoic dinosaur species." ---Darren Naish, ScientificAmerican.com's, Tetrapod Zoology, "There's no doubt that Paul has done a tremendous job with The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs and it's quite impressive. If you're serious about dinosaurs and want a meticulously researched guide, this is certainly the book for you." --Jonathan Liu, Wired.com's GeekDad blog, "I have been looking forward to this book for years. Gregory Paul has set the standard for how prehistoric animals are reconstructed in scientific illustrations. As with all his work, the illustrations in this book are made with a near-fanatical quest for accuracy. This will be a popular and much-used reference for a wide audience of dinosaur enthusiasts." --James I. Kirkland, state paleontologist, Utah Geological Survey, "You'll never need to decide whether that massive beast lumbering through your front yard is Chasmosaurus belli or C. sternbergi , but if you did, this would be a handy book to have on your windowsill. . . .

Indeed, Paul is to be credited for pulling so much information together into one volume, as well as for illustrating so many skeletons (some dinosaurs no doubt discovered while the book was in press.)" --Brian Switek, SmithsonianMag.com's Dinosaur Tracking blog, "The publication of Gregory Paul's The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs is cause for celebration for all who share a fascination with this diverse family of animals. Paul's field guide is (perhaps) the most comprehensive one-volume guide to what we know about 735 species of dinosaurs. The book includes an outstanding . . . introduction summarizing the history of dinosaurs research, evolution, biology, energetics, behavior, and distribution. It includes a discussion of the most arresting feature of dinosaurs--their great size. . . . The heart of the book is a richly illustrated field guide which is organized like any of the field guides that we have become accustomed to. The species are presented in phylogenic order and meticulously and beautifully illustrated following the current state of our knowledge of posture and shape." --Wayne Mones, AudubonMagazine.org blog, "Reproduced and copied time and again, Paul's interpretation of dinosaur anatomy has found for years a permanent home on both the popular and scientific page. Paul's latest publication, The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs , is the collection of these skeletal reconstructions that the dinosaur-loving community has been waiting for. If nothing else, it is this collection that makes the book worthy of ownership." ---Richard A. Kissel, American Paleontologist, This engaging volume is informed by the latest research, much of it from China. In a fully revised introduction, Paul explores his subject from head to tail, while the passage 'If Dinosaurs Had Survived' is sure to leave readers misty-eyed., "A fantastic new book on dinosaurs. . . . Paul is an accomplished illustrator and expert in all things dinosaurian.

Name a dinosaur and you're likely to find it in [ The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs, Second Edition ], detailed with vital statistics about size, where it lived and how much of the skeleton is known. You'll also find skeletal diagrams, fleshed-out profiles and classic pieces of Mr. Paul's distinctive art. . . .

Learn how beasts ranging from Allosaurus to zuniceratops grew, moved and reproduced--and how they eventually went extinct." -- Scientific American, Lavishly filled with fossil forms and drawn interpretations of their outward appearance, the guide covers the entire spectrum of dinosaur species. The color images of some of the rock stars of the Age of Dinosaurs, from T-Rex to Triceratops, will enthrall any youngster with a yen for these ancient beasts. . . . Paul has revitalized and re-invented the depiction of dinosaurs in recent decades, and the book brings the breadth of their lost world to today's readers. ---Dan Vergano, USA Today, There's no doubt that Paul has done a tremendous job with The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs and it's quite impressive.
