About Eggs, Nests, and Baby Dinosaurs:

In this scholarly book--which is still accessible to the educated layperson--Kenneth Carpenter reviews all the available evidence about how dinosaurs had sex (the tentative verdict: "carefully"), laid eggs, and raised their young. Especially interesting are the chapters that discuss what dinosaur eggs tell us about dinosaur extinction, and a classification of the various types of fossilized dinosaur eggs found so far.
