Books with title Unearthing the Dragon

Norell, head paleontologist at the American Museum of Natural History, recounts not only the first discovery of feathered dinosaurs in 1996, but also the impact that discovery has had on the field of paleontology and on popular culture about dinosaurs since then, particularly by dissolving the distinction between them and birds. Ellison, principal artist in the Museum's Division of Paleontology, contributes photographs of fossils and sites, but also of modern Chinese life--especially food--and drawings. The treatment is for general readers. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
