An excellent, well-illustrated, and detailed popular work on comparative dinosaur anatomy and evolution. It includes a good deal of information from recent fossil finds and research. Also devotes more than a chapter to the descent of birds.

A popular overview of dinosaurs, including birds but focusing, as you might expect, on Mesozoic forms. I was once a youthful dinosaur enthusiast, and I bought this partly out of nostalgia. It's nevertheless a genuinely good piece of science popularization, neither impenetrable nor dumbed down.
