Today, with the discovery of new specimens and the development of new and cutting-edge techniques, paleontologists are making major advances in reconstructing how dinosaurs lived and acted. \u003ci\u003eUncovering Dinosaur Behavior\u003c\/i\u003e provides an unparalleled look at this emerging field of science, presenting the latest findings on dinosaur behavior and explaining how researchers interpret the often minimal and even conflicting information available to them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDavid Hone begins by introducing readers to the fundamentals of dinosaur biology, diversity, and evolution, and goes on to describe behaviors across the whole range of species and groups, from feeding and communication to reproduction, sociality, and combat. Speculation about dinosaur behavior goes back to the earliest scientific studies of these \"terrible lizards.\" Hone traces how pioneering science is opening a window into prehistoric life as never before, and discusses future directions of research in this thrilling and rapidly growing area of paleontology. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWritten by one of the world's leading dinosaur experts and featuring accurate color recreations by paleoartist Gabriel Ugueto along with a wealth of photos and diagrams, \u003ci\u003eUncovering Dinosaur Behavior\u003c\/i\u003e is a foundational work on the subject and an invaluable reference for anyone interested in these amazing creatures.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Hone\u003c\/b\u003e is Reader in Zoology at Queen Mary University of London and the author of \u003ci\u003eHow Fast Did \u003c\/i\u003eT. rex\u003ci\u003e Run?
