Transylvanian Dinosaurs

"Transylvanian Dinosaurs is an amazing gem of a book and is sure to capture the imagination of professional paleontologists and amateur dinophiles alike."—Prehistoric Times

"A valuable introduction to the emergence of this isolated vertebrate area."—Choice

"A fine example of something I always try, but rarely succeed, to articulate to colleagues in paleontology, evolutionary biology, and geology who don't work on dinosaurs. Dinosaurs, within the context of their ecosystems and paleogeography, can tell us many neat things about how evolution works over long time scales."—Stephen Brusatte, Priscum

"[The authors] expertly weave together the various, complex sources of scientific information into a rich tapestry that vividly illustrates the story of this region and highlights its importance to our understanding of dinosaur evolution . . . This volume should inspire current and upcoming paleontologists to think more synthetically about the evolutionary and ecological context of the organisms they are studying as well as past worlds we seek to understand."—Christopher R. Noto, Quarterly Review of Biology

"Transylvanian Dinosaurs . . . is well-written, an easy read, and is likely to be popular with both professional and amateur paleontologists."—Michael Hutchins, MGS Book Reviews

"It is rare to find a book on dinosaurs so literate, well-written, and full of insight and synthesis—particularly when the dinosaurs are so unusual. The authors lay them out for us, situate them beautifully in time, space, and cultural history, and then reassemble them and their world using all the tools of modern science. The result is a tour de force."—Kevin Padian, University of California Museum of Paleontology
