Purely coincidental.
I ordered this book from Amazon yesterday ($39.99 at Barnes and Noble), $16 at Amazon -- it arrived today.
I'm in the process of sorting out recent research regarding the evolution of the dinosaurs and their relationship to amphibians and mammals. Absolutely fascinating how things have "evolved" since I last studied this story.
The book that probably started it all -- for me -- was The Mistaken Extinction: Dinosaur Evolution and the Origin of Birds, Lowell Dingus and Timothy Rowe, c. 1997, perhaps one of the best books I've ever read on this subject, and, it introduced me to the whole subject of "clades."
This new phase in my "research" was the murky relationship between amphibians, reptiles and mammals. It now all makes sense. Wow. Paleontologists / evolutionists are much closer to the "answer," but it's very possible the "truth" will never be known - or at least accepted by everyone.
Now, moments ago, this story pushed to me by The New York Times. Link here.
