«El enigma de los dinosaurios» is John Noble Wilford's popular science essay on palaeontology, published by RBA in hardback (407 pages, in Spanish).
The book recounts the history of palaeontological research from the 19th century and the hypotheses about the origin, development and extinction of the dinosaurs. Modern findings challenge the idea of slow, cold-blooded animals and point to agile, warm-blooded species whose disappearance may have been due to major catastrophes.
Volume 2 of the Biblioteca de divulgación científica collection, directed by Virgilio Ortega. Translation and adaptation by Joaquín Adsuar Ortega from the English original 'The Riddle of the Dinosaur'.
For readers of popular science interested in palaeontology and the history of dinosaur research.
