Dinosaur books!

Greg Paul does some marvellous illustrations of dinosaurs and contemporary organisms, but they are usually only in magazines. Colour publishing being what it is, they are not collected in a quality book, but new technologies mean quality colour books can be printed on demand. So he announced this on the Dinosaur Mail List:

Over the years I have wanted to do a coffee table style book featuring my color art, but the cost versus sales ratio makes this at best difficult if going through the traditional publishing system. The web offers an alternative method in which the book is produced and mailed only upon demand by a purchaser, so I am trying this experiment. Robert Telleria has produced two such books via Blurb. The contents are similar in that they include the same works. They differ in that one is large format and includes both the latest and when pertinent the old version of the art, the other is smaller and lower in cost, and due to limitations of the system does not include the old versions. A number of recent pieces are included. The text, which is specific to the illustrations, includes some discussion of the science and thinking behind each color.
