From the outback of Australia to the Gobi Desert of Mongolia and the savanna of Madagascar, the award-winning science writer and dinosaur enthusiast John Pickrell embarks on a world tour of new finds, meeting the fossil hunters who work at the frontier of discovery. He reveals the dwarf dinosaurs unearthed by an eccentric Transylvanian baron; an aquatic, crocodile-snouted carnivore bigger than T. rex that once lurked in North African waterways; a Chinese dinosaur with wings like a bat; and a Patagonian sauropod so enormous it weighed more than two commercial jet airliners. Other surprising discoveries hail from Alaska, Siberia, Canada, Burma, and South Africa. Why did dinosaurs grow so huge? How did they spread across the world? Did they all have feathers? What do sauropods have in common with 1950s vacuum cleaners? The stuff of adventure movies and scientific revolutions, Weird Dinosaurs examines the latest breakthroughs and new technologies that are radically transforming our understanding of the distant past. Pickrell opens a vivid portal to a brand-new age of fossil discovery, in which fossil hunters are routinely redefining what we know and how we think about prehistory's most iconic and fascinating creatures.Binding Type: Hardcover

Always Reliable and Good Quality
I’ve always used Q-tips, and they’re just better than most other cotton swabs. The cotton stays in place and doesn’t fall apart easily, and the sticks are sturdy without bending too much.I use them for everyday things around the house, quick cleanups, and personal care, and they always work well. The 500 count box also lasts a long time.Simple product, but consistent quality every time.

Essential household item with great quality
These Q-tips cotton swabs are a household essential that I always keep stocked. The 100% cotton tips are soft yet sturdy and perfect for so many uses from beauty to first aid. The 500 count package is a great value and lasts a long time. I appreciate the quality and consistency of the original Q-tips brand. These are far superior to generic cotton swabs in terms of quality and durability.

I only trust Q-Tip brand!! Great product. Never had luck with generic swabs.
I only trust Q-Tip brand!! This is a consistently great product. I've never had good luck with generic swabs, they either bend, don't have enough cotton on the end, or fray as I use them. These are soft tips, yet the stick is firm enough not to bend. I'll always go with Q-Tips and this 500 pack is a great value.
