Revue de presse :

"The proposed text has some very attractive innovations which have good potential to make it competitive with other texts. I like the emphasis on scientific method and aspects such as dino tracks and taphonomy ... I would recommend that you pursue the development of this text." Dave Meyer, University of Cincinnati

"I give the proposal recommendation because there is still no text on the market that fills the niche between Lucas and F and W, and this is where most of the college level dino courses seem to be. I would certainly consider adopting the text." Richard Bailey, North–Eastern University

"In summary, this book is probably exactly what the intended audience wants." Geological Magazine, August 2003
