The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs is a reference work on dinosaurs written by the paleontologist and paleoartist Gregory S. Paul. It was first published by Princeton University Press in 2010. In the United Kingdom it was published by A & C Black under the title Dinosaurs: A Field Guide.[1] An updated second edition was released in 2016.[2] A third edition was released in 2024.[3]
The book was well-received upon its release but garnered a mixed reception among paleontologists, who generally praised the large number of skeletal and life reconstructions throughout the book but questioned Paul's at times unorthodox approach to dinosaur taxonomy.
