seawarrior's review against another edition

4.0

The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs is a riveting tale of natural history, even for those who are far from an expert on paleontology. Brusatte gives readers a rest from hard science with stories of the great personalities in his field, and vivid imaginings of what daily life must have been like in the age of the dinosaurs. This book was definitely a tough one for me to read, as I struggled with making sense of the physical sciences as a student. Yet Brusatte's passion is infectious and encouraging, providing a implied argument that anyone can learn to make sense of the dinosaur's extinct and outlandish world if they're willing to work for the knowledge.
