Notes

• First discovery of feathered dinosaurs announced at the 56th annual meeting of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 1996, held at the American Museum of Natural History; some specimens featured in the museum’s current exhibit, "Dinosaurs : ancient fossils, new discoveries."
• "A Peter N. Névraumont book."
• "Unearthing the dragon is the first book to establish the dramatic change in our understanding of dinosaur origins, based on the new fossil discoveries in China reported by Mark Norell in a personal account of his adventures there." "This revolution in our understanding of dinosaurs has exploded in the last decade. Dinosaurs are no longer thought of as lizards so much as birds. This transformation in popular culture is based on fossil discoveries in one profoundly important region in China: Liaoning Province. Mark Norell tells the story of these discoveries and his work with an extraordinarily talented group of Chinese scientists."–BOOK JACKET
