Author: Fiffer, Steve:
ISBN: 0716740176
Description: W H Freeman & Co 2000 2000 600 g; XVIII, 256 pages, indexed, with original colour illustrated dust jacket. The book shows no signs of damage. In 1990 the virtually completes skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus Rex was found. Immediately ensued a legal battle involving commercial dinosaur hunters, Law offices, federal prosecution, a Native American tribe, jealous academics, and others, all making their claim for the dinosaur named Sue. All in all this is an interesting introduction to the centuries-old history of commercial fossil hunting, a legal thriller, and a provocative look at academic versus commercial science and the chase for the money that fuels both. Science -- Anecdote
