{"product_id":"seismosaurus-david-gillette-9780231078740","title":"Seismosaurus: The Earth Shaker","description":"This scientific detective story is the first book which explains clearly the science used by paleontologists, and the new, cutting-edge techniques that led to the discovery of Seismosaurus, the longest dinosaur yet known--and possibly the largest land animal to have ever lived. Gillette's first-person account of the project answers the most frequently asked questions about Seismosaurus: How was it discovered? How do we know it is a new species? How did it die? Part catalogue of the workings of paleontological science in the 1990s, the book also illustrates the exciting collaboration between Gillette, the chemists and physicists who helped to reconstruct Seismosaurus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Gillette, Mark Hallett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0231078749\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780231078740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Columbia University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 205\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.34h x 8.86w x 0.86d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/1994 pg. 1745\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/1994 pg. 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/1994 pg. 521","brand":"David Gillette","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43946357031167,"sku":"9780231078740","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_eecbbb06-1150-4773-ae40-c5f45b54c0fe.jpg?v=1681512682","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/seismosaurus-david-gillette-9780231078740","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
