Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller! A "raucous trip through the odd corners of our alphabet." —The New York Times Let's get real—the English language is bizarre. A might be for apple, but it's also for aisle and aeons. Why does the word "gnat" start with a G but the word "knot" doesn't start with an N? It doesn't always make sense, but don't let these rule-breaking silent letters defeat you! This whimsical, funky book from Raj Haldar (aka rapper Lushlife) turns the traditional idea of an alphabet book on its head, poking fun at the most mischievous words in the English language and demonstrating how to pronounce them. Fun and informative for word nerds of all ages!
Download or read book Pterosaurs written by Mark P. Witton and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013-06-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most authoritative illustrated book on flying reptiles available For 150 million years, the skies didn't belong to birds—they belonged to the pterosaurs. These flying reptiles, which include the pterodactyls, shared the world with the nonavian dinosaurs until their extinction 65 million years ago. Some pterosaurs, such as the giant azhdarchids, were the largest flying animals of all time, with wingspans exceeding thirty feet and standing heights comparable to modern giraffes. This richly illustrated book takes an unprecedented look at these astonishing creatures, presenting the latest findings on their anatomy, ecology, and extinction. Pterosaurs features some 200 stunning illustrations, including original paintings by Mark Witton and photos of rarely seen fossils. After decades of mystery, paleontologists have finally begun to understand how pterosaurs are related to other reptiles, how they functioned as living animals, and, despite dwarfing all other flying animals, how they managed to become airborne. Here you can explore the fossil evidence of pterosaur behavior and ecology, learn about the skeletal and soft-tissue anatomy of pterosaurs, and consider the newest theories about their cryptic origins. This one-of-a-kind book covers the discovery history, paleobiogeography, anatomy, and behaviors of more than 130 species of pterosaur, and also discusses their demise at the end of the Mesozoic. The most comprehensive book on pterosaurs ever published Features some 200 illustrations, including original paintings by the author Covers every known species and major group of pterosaurs Describes pterosaur anatomy, ecology, behaviors, diversity, and more Encourages further study with 500 references to primary pterosaur literature

Download or read book Modern Pterosaurs written by Jonathan Whitcomb and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-02 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First edition - This fully supports the literal Flood of Noah in the Bible, although the genre is nonfiction cryptozoology. For countless years, an old photograph has been seen on the internet, and some persons report they had seen it in a book decades before there was an internet. Now two scientists share their astonishing discovery: This is a genuine photograph of an actual animal that appears to have been a modern pterosaur, perhaps even a Pteranodon. Share in the excitement as one piece of evidence after another accumulates in favor of "Ptp" being a pre-1870 photograph of a modern pterosaur. Some evidences were independently discovered by two men (a physicist and a forensic videographer) who later shared their similar findings with each other, verifying the authenticity of Ptp. Was this photo created by a hoaxer who used Photoshop? See for yourself, as time and again the Photoshop conjecture is shot down. The missing-fingers of one of the soldiers in the photo is answered soundly, in a number of ways. The apparent "halo" near part of the head of another soldier-that is also answered. Not only did Photoshop have nothing to do with those details but there would have been no reason to use Photoshop in that way, if somebody wanted to create a hoax photo with some kind of model looking like a recently-deceased "pterodactyl." This is explained, in the book, by a videographer who has used Photoshop and knows how a hoaxer would and would not have used digital image-processing software. Don't confuse two photos that resemble each other. An imitation was created around the year 2000, apparently with Civil War reenactors, and that hoax-photo was made to look old, probably with software like Photoshop. It was then used in promoting a television show, but that IS NOT the photo examined in this book. Learn how others have been fooled by the similarity between those two photos. How much more credible is the Ptp photo! How could such an astonishing photograph have eluded scientific discovery for so long? That is also explained by the author, Jonathan Whitcomb, who has spent more time in the investigation of eyewitness reports of apparent extant pterosaurs than probably an other person in the world. Why did it take Whitcomb so many years to fully come to believe in the authenticity of Ptp? That is also explained, for this photograph has escaped the serious attention of almost everybody until January of 2017. Several introductory chapters include many sighting reports of large flying creatures, some of the accounts being published here for the first time. The descriptions of those apparent pterosaurs are compared with the apparent Pteranodon in Ptp. You'll learn why at least some of the sightings must have been encounters with actual extant pterosaurs. Above all, you'll learn why the animal shown in Ptp was a real pterosaur, probably shot by one or more of the soldiers shown in the photo. Support the continuing research by purchasing your own copy of "Modern Pterosaurs."

This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encounters with living pterosaurs Live "pterodactyls?" In the United States? Many scientists have long assumed all pterosaurs died millions of years ago. Now take a whirlwind tour of many years of investigations in cryptozoology, and prepare for a shock: At least two species of pterosaurs have survived, uncommon, not so much rare as widely, thinly distributed. Nocturnal pterosaurs have always lived among us, but hidden by something. Enter now the realm of a new branch of cryptozoology, a branch overshadowed by the dogma of a "universal extinction." How did scientists miss living pterosaurs? Get the answers here, hidden secrets about how these amazing flying creatures of the night have gone mostly unreported: Until recently, almost nobody would listen to eyewitnesses; but for the past seven years many of them have been interviewed by the author of this book. Many modern pterosaurs are much larger than any bat, many with long tails, many with head crests. What about news headlines? How did these creatures avoid media attention? Get the answers from years of work by American cryptozoologists. The old "fruit bat" explanation for reports of pterosaurs in Papua New Guinea--that bat idea has now been shot down; the tail length of the larger creatures has been estimated at a minimum of ten feet and a maximum of over twenty feet. More shocking, these giant long-tailed flying creatures are not confined to the southwest Pacific: They are seen in the contiguous United States of America. Most pterosaurs in North America, however, are smaller, with many wingspan estimates at less than fifteen feet; nevertheless, how shocking! What amazing encounters! In California, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Florida, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and many other states, eyewitnesses have seen strange featherless creatures flying overhead. These are not bats; most have long tails and are bigger than any bat. Dive into eyewitness testimonies; compare sightings through the author's detailed analysis. Third edition, nonfiction
