Summary

Los dinosaurios, como jamás te los habían contado.

Tiranosaurios primitivos del tamaño de un ser humano, monstruos carnívoros de dimensiones descomunales, misteriosos reptiles emplumados... Los dinosaurios, las criaturas más formidables de la Tierra, se desvanecieron hace ya sesenta y seis millones de años, pero siguen siendo uno de los misterios más intrigantes de todos los tiempos.
 
En Auge y caída de los dinosaurios, la joven estrella de la paleontología Steve Brusatte repasa la evolución de estos extraordinarios seres mientras nos hace partícipes de sus apasionantes expediciones alrededor del mundo y sus recientes descubrimientos, que ponen en entredicho todo cuanto creíamos saber sobre la evolución de los dinosaurios.
 
Desde los inicios del Triásico hasta su repentina y catastrófica extinción al final del Cretácico, este electrizante libro redefine la historia de un mundo perdido y desentierra los enigmáticos orígenes, la catastrófica extinción, la enorme diversidad y el apasionante legado de unas criaturas legendarias.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Primitive human-sized tyrannosaurs, monstrous carnivores of gigantic dimensions, and mysterious feathered raptors . . . Dinosaurs, the most fearsome and spectacular creatures on Earth, vanished sixty-six million years ago, but they are still one of the world’s most intriguing mysteries of all time.
 
In The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs, young paleontologist Steve Brusatte traces the evolution of these extraordinary beings while making us part of their exciting globe-trotting expeditions and their recent discoveries, which call into question everything we thought we knew about the evolution of the dinosaurs.
 
From the beginning of the Triassic period until their sudden and tragic extinction at the end of the Cretaceous period, this electrifying book redefines the history of a lost world and unearths these legendary creatures’ enigmatic beginnings, their catastrophic extinction, their great diversity, and their exciting legacy.
