Nostalgia Reader's Reviews > Dinomania: Why We Love, Fear and Are Utterly Enchanted by Dinosaurs

An interesting read that tries to unearth our fascination with dinosaurs. Sax covers a variety of different ideas, from the way we see dinos as a mirror of humans and our corporations to their sublime otherworldly qualities. A bit too philosophical in some parts (but still quite interesting) for me, and just not exactly what I was expecting in the end. Great photos and posters though, especially the engravings from the 1800s. Made me realize that might be a reason I never grew out of my dinosaur phase.
