The discovery of stunning, feathered dinosaur fossils coming out of China since 2006 suggest that these creatures were much more bird-like than paleontologists previously imagined. Further evidence--bones, genetics, eggs, behavior, and more--has shown a seamless transition from fleet-footed carnivores to the ancestors of modern birds. Mixing colorful portraits with news on the latest fossil findings and interviews with leading paleontologists in the United States, China, Europe, and Australia, John Pickrell explains and details dinosaurs' development of flight. This special capacity introduced a whole new range of abilities for the animals and helped them survive a mass extinction, when thousands of other dinosaur species that once populated the Earth did not. Pickrell also turns his journalistic eye toward the stories behind the latest discoveries, investigating the role of the Chinese black market in trading fossils, the controversies among various dinosaur hunters, the interference of national governments intent on protecting scientific information, and the race to publish findings first that make this research such a dynamic area of science.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great solution if you need some privacy!
Size: 6 Panels, Color: Beige
I had my family and relatives came over last holiday and I needed to provide a make shift rooms for them. I have a finished basement. I purchased 2 sets of VEVOR 6 Panel Room Divider and solved my problem.
The VEVOR 6 Panel Room Divider is a practical and affordable way to create privacy in any space. It’s easy to set up and the folding design makes it simple to adjust or store when not in use. The panels are lightweight but still feel sturdy enough. Assembly needs some extra patience
Overall, a great value option for flexible and convenient room separation. Highly recommended.

Super Value
Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey, Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey
While not elegant, these dividers are study, stable, and made of surprisingly high-quality materials for the price. The fabric has a heavy-duty feel and stretches nice and tight with no need to individually Velcro the top and bottom in place as compared to other options. That makes screwing-in one bolt per panel section a bit of a challenge that is best done with two people. However, the results are worth the effort. Otherwise, super quick and simple assembly. The included hex wrench works OK. However, using a 5/32nd inch (4 mm) hex bit in a manual or electric screwdriver dramatically speeds assembly and disassembly. Everything fits nice and neatly back into the divider's shipping box provided one carefully preserves its packing materials and notes how the box was originally packed. Our organization ordered 8 additional 4 panel sets after initial testing of one set of panels indicated that they were an extremely cost-effective alternative to renting "pipe and drape" to support displaying and dividing artwork. We plan to use rubber backed pushpins (also available via Amazon) to affix items to the dividers as needed.

Great Value
Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey, Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey
These are great value and ideal for a divider that needs to be moved or maneuvered a small distance on a regular basis. Assembly is quick with a drill (don't over-tighten). Fabric seems of good quality and the unit seems sturdy expecially when linked together.
