Description
From penguins to dinosaurs, trilobites and humans, an acclaimed paleontologist and ichnologist reveals the subterranean secret of survival.
Author Biography
Anthony J. Martin is a Professor at Emory University, a paleontologist, geologist, and one of the world's most accomplished ichnologists. He is the co-discoverer of the first known burrowing dinosaur, found the oldest dinosaur burrows in the geologic record, and documented the best assemblage of polar-dinosaur tracks in the Southern Hemisphere. He is the author of two textbooks on dinosaurs as well as Dinosaurs Without Bones and lives in Atlanta, GA.
Reviews"It was not because I am a total geology geek that I really enjoyed this book. It has everything you want in a popular science book: full of facts and information, well written, jokes to keep you on your toes, and stories to bring the pages alive." -- Jan Freedman - TwilightBeasts
