The Dinosaur Heresies

New Theories Unlocking the Mystery of the Dinosaurs and Their Extinction

Robert T. Bakker

This groundbreaking study of dinosaur habits covers everything from their eating habits to their movement and reproduction methods. Based on first-hand studies of dinosaur exhibits in museums around the world, the book supports the idea that dinosaurs were intelligent, warm-blooded creatures that bore little resemblance to existing reptiles. Author Robert T. Bakker's illustrations are both informative and engaging. This controversial book challenges the long-held belief that dinosaurs were cold-blooded, lumbering and of low intelligence.
