The Dinosaur Heresies by Robert T. Bakker, published by Penguin in 1988, presents a transformative perspective on dinosaurs, challenging long-held beliefs about these creatures. This new edition spans 481 pages and is written in English.

The book delves into the idea that dinosaurs were not only agile and warm-blooded but also possessed a level of intelligence previously unrecognized. With illustrations complementing the text, this edition invites readers to explore the fascinating evolution of thought surrounding these ancient animals.
