The rise of birds : 225 million years of evolution / by Chatterjee, Sankar.(CARDINAL)333080;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 285-300) and index.Dinosaurs are so popular that we often neglect their flying relatives that are still among us. Birds, the true "living dinosaurs," deserve considerable respect as successful vertebrates that have evolved, adapted, and survived over a period of 225 million years. The Rise of Birds is the first detailed, illustrated, and comprehensive review of the fossil record of birds in a modern phylogenetic context. Distinguished paleontologist Sankar Chatterjee provides a clear and exciting chronology documenting the long odyssey of birds since Protoavis, which may have taken to the air some 75 million years before the widely known "first bird," Archaeopteryx. The remains of Protoavis are preserved in a still controversial fossil found by Chatterjee and his students in Texas in 1983. The Rise of Birds discusses the significance of all the many recently discovered bird and possible bird fossils, from Europe to China to Latin America. Chatterjee outlines the varying theories of how animal flight developed, and he explains, in terms of comparative anatomy, what makes a bird a bird. Beautifully illustrated by Michael W. Nickell, this book will be of interest to a broad range of readers, including vertebrate paleontologists, ornithologists, and amateur naturalists, including birders.

Ghostrider / by Buchman, M. L.(Matthew Lieber),author.(CARDINAL)600783;
An AC-130J ٢Ghostrider٣-the latest variant of America's Number One ground-attack plane for over fifty years-goes down in the Colorado Rockies. Except the data doesn't match the airframe. Air-crash savant Miranda Chase and her NTSB team are sent in to investigate. But what they uncover reveals a far greater threat-sabotage. It could be a prelude to a whole new type of war; this time one far too close to home.
