"THE ULTIMATE DINOSAUR BIOGRAPHY," hails Scientific American: A thrilling new history of the age of dinosaurs, from one of our finest young scientists.

"A masterpiece of science writing." —Washington Post

A New York Times Bestseller • Goodreads Choice Awards Winner • A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Smithsonian, Science Friday, The Times (London), Popular Mechanics, Science News

"This is scientific storytelling at its most visceral, striding with the beasts through their Triassic dawn, Jurassic dominance, and abrupt demise in the Cretaceous." —Nature

The dinosaurs. Sixty-six million years ago, the Earth’s most fearsome creatures vanished. Today they remain one of our planet’s great mysteries. Now The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs reveals their extraordinary, 200-million-year-long story as never before.

In this captivating narrative (enlivened with more than seventy original illustrations and photographs), Steve Brusatte, a young American paleontologist who has emerged as one of the foremost stars of the field—naming fifteen new species and leading groundbreaking scientific studies and fieldwork—masterfully tells the complete, surprising, and new history of the dinosaurs, drawing on cutting-edge science to dramatically bring to life their lost world and illuminate their enigmatic origins, spectacular flourishing, astonishing diversity, cataclysmic extinction, and startling living legacy. Captivating and revelatory, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs is a book for the ages.

Brusatte traces the evolution of dinosaurs from their inauspicious start as small shadow dwellers—themselves the beneficiaries of a mass extinction caused by volcanic eruptions at the beginning of the Triassic period—into the dominant array of species every wide-eyed child memorizes today, T. rex, Triceratops, Brontosaurus, and more. This gifted scientist and writer re-creates the dinosaurs’ peak during the Jurassic and Cretaceous, when thousands of species thrived, and winged and feathered dinosaurs, the prehistoric ancestors of modern birds, emerged. The story continues to the end of the Cretaceous period, when a giant asteroid or comet struck the planet and nearly every dinosaur species (but not all) died out, in the most extraordinary extinction event in earth’s history, one full of lessons for today as we confront a “sixth extinction.”

Brusatte also recalls compelling stories from his globe-trotting expeditions during one of the most exciting eras in dinosaur research—which he calls “a new golden age of discovery”—and offers thrilling accounts of some of the remarkable findings he and his colleagues have made, including primitive human-sized tyrannosaurs; monstrous carnivores even larger than T. rex; and paradigm-shifting feathered raptors from China.

An electrifying scientific history that unearths the dinosaurs’ epic saga, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs will be a definitive and treasured account for decades to come.

Includes 75 images, world maps of the prehistoric earth, and a dinosaur family tree.

S P Mead

a good work in popular science

2018年6月30日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This is a fascinating and enjoyable read - and I recommend it to anyone interested in the history of dinosaur exploration. The author adopts a novel approach, offering a narrative consisting of two distinct elements. On the one hand, this is a tale about the dinosaurs themselves - how they lived, their habitats, ecosystems, etc. And on the other hand, it's a story about developments in the science of palaeontology (as relate to dinosaur excavation and investigation). The author - who is himself a palaeontologist - bends these two elements together, and shifts focus between them from one chapter to the next. So, for example, you'll get a chapter about the extinction event that ended the Cretaceous period - looking in detail at how this affected the dinosaurs. Then, in the following chapter, you'll read about the competing ideas offered by different scientists as regards the reason for the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.

This is not an academic textbook or scholarly treatise. Rather, it's a work in popular science. It's easy to read and understand. The subject matter is engrossing. Of course, the author simplifies much of what went on - as he covers a period of some 180 million years of dinosaur evolution and extinction. On occasion, he adopts a slightly hyperbolic stance - as if writing fiction (e.g. describing how a group of T. Rex's experienced the cataclysmic day that ended the Mesozoic era). Nonetheless, it's fun to read.

An extremely interesting and well explained popular science book. The evolution of the dinosaurs through the various time periods, and the eventual extinction of many of them is clearly laid out and convincingly argued (for now anyway). A subtitle of ‘the Rise and Rise of the Palaeontologists’ May also be suitable, but I found the history, and recent experience of fossil hunting, and examination to be interesting in itself The author brought it to life, and tied it in with the overall story of the dinosaurs. Not a definitive work - the pace of fossil discovery and scientific advancement in this field would make sure of that, it is nevertheless a concise, comprehensive guide to the dinosaurs and their world. Clearly explained, requiring only the odd resort to the dictionary, it leaves me knowing things my kids don’t know, for a brief period anyway, until the book is regurgitated, bit by bit by the dinogeeks on You Tube. A very interesting book, even for those no more than casually interested in the subject. A justifiable best seller

Very good with one or two irritating flaws

2019年3月7日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

I have always been interested in paleontology in a very, very amateur way. I found this book very readable but the scientific names of the fossils used are hard to keep track of in my ageing brain. By the time I was about halfway
through, though still enjoying the information, and admiring the ingenuity and intelligence that had gone into it's finding, I started to wonder what sort of people make a living by studying and devoting untold resources to finding out if a 100 million year old dead fossilised animal had this characteristic or another. All of the characters (fellow scientists) mentioned by the author sound like people I would be happy to avoid and would never, ever go to the pub with. His thumbnail sketches of these people can be summed up as wierdo obsessive geeks. This did put a bit of a damper on my enjoyment of the information being presented. Call me odd but there it is. When the author devotes himself to "factual" information he can write very well indeed his description of the Asteroid impact that did for the dinosaurs is very good as is his explanation of how dinosaurs did, in fact, survive to the present day... as birds.
It was not quite the book I hoped for or expected but it is very good and I recommend it.

Brilliant book, great insight and information. Little too much autobiography

2019年8月22日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

I enjoyed this book, mostly for the reasons I was expecting, but Brusatte writes a lot about his work as an paleontologist and collecting, collating and studying fossils and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of dinosaur study.

I do think it perhaps goes a little too far into this though; this is a book called 'The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs' yet a great deal of it is autobiographical, which does let it down a little. The anecdotes and colleague name-dropping is a little off putting when you want to get immersed into the world of the Dinosaurs (of which he is incredibly knowledgeable)

Nothing wrong with the autobiographical sections per se but perhaps it should be marketed more this way so the reader has an idea that large sections of the book are personal stories.

I have learned so much from this book

2020年5月10日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

The enthusiasm of the author shines out on every page of this excellent book.

Some have called it popular science, but I think that it falls somewhere between that and a scientific paper that only an expert would understand. It is not the easiest of reads because the descriptions of some of the dinosaurs needs the background knowledge of either a paleontology student or of a six year old dinosaur fanatic. However, that does not diminish the pleasure of reading this book. The at times overwhelming amount of information cannot be avoided, but once understood gives great satisfaction.

I particularly liked the flights into imagination, which brought the dinosaurs to life. Just enough to not affect the scholarly aspect of the book.

The best thing about this book is, I feel, the level of explanation about how the dinosaurs were related to each other, why different dinosaurs are found in different parts of the world, and how technology is increasing our understanding.

A thoroughly good read, but keep Google ready to call up pictures of the more obscure creatures.
