We've all had our dinosaur moment – inspired either by "Land Before Time," "Jurassic Park," or what we learned in school. Science writer Brian Switek takes us back to those fond memories with his visits to excavation sites, museum vaults, and a look at why the dinosaurs vanished. Switek writes with compelling enthusiasm about his passion. This is the perfect read for the dad who is perhaps just a bit of a science geek. You can see a full review of this book that ran on the Monitor's website here.
