Cover

The New Dinosaurs: An Alternative Evolution (1988) is a book written by geologist and paleontologist Dougal Dixon. While Dixon's earlier book After Man is set fifty million years in the future, The New Dinosaurs speculates on how the dinosaurs would have evolved over the last 65 million years had the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event not taken place.
