Please, recommend a book

[postosuchus]

Can someone here recommend books (encyclopedias, reference books) on paleontology, about dinosaurs and other prehistoric fauna:

1) With images of the skeleton of a dinosaur (other animal), reconstruction of the location of muscles from different angles and other anatomical features (below I tried (hardly to succeed) to attach a photo example of what I mean).


2) In Russian language. I can't find anything good at all. Only a lot of children's encyclopedias with drawings and texts from twenty years ago.

Points 1) and 2) are independent of each other. Books can be recommended in English. Indicate the price if you know it, and where the book can be purchased.

If you know books in electronic format, then share links for downloading. Thanks.

I found these photos in one of the reviews of the Haolonggood product on Aliexpress. does anyone know what book is it?

I met photographs of another book (Russian) in anothen Haolonggood review, which I can't find now; it showed the skeleton of a dinosaur in different angles (side and top views) as well as a reconstruction of the dinosaur from the same angles.

Looks like a translated version of "The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs".

I recommend "Dinosaurs: The Grand Tour" By Keiron Pim with Illustrations by Fabio Pastori. Not exactly what you were asking, but certainly a very nice, informative book.

 That's right. Definitely Gregory Paul's Carnotaurus.

#1) Based on the photos you shared, you want GSPaul's dino field guide (which, despite its weirdness, IS 1 of the best sources of dino stats). A 3rd edition is coming out soon ( https://www.amazon.com/Princeton-Field-Guide-Dinosaurs-Guides/dp/0691231575 ), but if you wanna check out the other editions, let me know in a PM.

#2) AFAIK, the best adult dino book available in Russian is Naish/Barrett's Dinosaurs: How They Lived and Evolved (which, while not a reference work, IS the best adult natural history of dinos): http://alioramus-altai.blogspot.com/2018/07/dinosaurs-how-they-lived-and-evolved.html

Sorry to put down your suggestion, but objectively, it's pretty bad for reasons I discuss elsewhere: https://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=2210.msg352719#msg352719

This is kind of an all-ages title, but if you're interested in a broad survey of prehistoric life, you might enjoy this one Palmer et al., published by Dorling Kindersley: https://www.dk.com/us/book/9781465482495-dinosaurs-and-prehistoric-life/
Some of the illustrations could definitely be improved, but there is a lot of good information.

I believe Darren Naish's "Dinosaurs: How They Lived and Evolved" has a Russian edition. It has quite a few skeletal diagrams, and a few muscle reconstructions, and is generally one of the more detailed books on dinosaurs you can find!
