Polar regions and fossils are topics of perpetual interest. Now we are in a world of global warming, in which polar regions heat first and suffer more immediate impacts. The Cretaceous was a greenhouse world with warmer poles and, thus, serve as a warm Earth analog. Fiorillo is undoubtedly the best person to have written this book because of his experience in the field, his numerous publications, and his complementary work in Asia. Louis L. Jacobs, Southern Methodist University. Alaska Dinosaurs: An Ancient Arctic World is a cutting-edge presentation of Cretaceous Arctic ecosystems.ã This comprehensive work represents an important step forward in presenting Alaska's fascinating fossil history.ã Federico Fanti, Universita di Bologna.
