Encyclopaedia Britannica has created Discovering Dinosaurs, an online expedition into the legacy of dinosaurs and their modern human hunters. The site asks not just "What are dinosaurs?" but also "How do we know what they are?" Our image of dinosaurs has evolved over the past 150 years since paleontologists first discovered them. Where we once saw clumsy, tail-dragging lizards, we now see agile, social animals that are related to birds. And despite 65 million years of extinction, dinosaurs continue to change in our imagination as science and technology marches on. Discovering Dinosaurs is a thoughtful look at the major themes of dinosaur study, richly illustrated with inventive animations and historical photos. Interested? Visit the site or buy the CD now! |
