Libro Original o primera edición
Hardcover. First Edition. pp. 321. Royal 8vo. Publisher's light-blue cloth over boards, bronze lettering to the spine. Richly illustrated in black-and-white, and colour throughout. Entirely without blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked extremities, and contents; fine and housed in near fine lightly rubbed dustjacket (now housed in protective mylar cover). Overall, very good+, to, near fine. "For animals that have been dead millions of years, dinosaurs are extraordinarily pervasive in our everyday lives. Appearing in ads, books, movies, museums, television, toy stores, and novels, they continually fascinate both adults and children. How did they move from natural extinction to pop culture resurrection? What is the source of their powerful appeal? Until now, no one has addressed this question in a comprehensive way. In this lively and engrossing exploration of the animal's place in our lives, W.J.T. Mitchell shows why we are so attached to the myth and the reality of the "terrible lizards." Mitchell aims to trace the cultural family tree of the dinosaur, and what he discovers is a creature of striking flexibility, linked to dragons and mammoths, skyscrapers and steam engines, cowboys and Indians. In the vast territory between the cunning predators of Jurassic Park and the mawkishly sweet Barney, from political leviathans to corporate icons, from paleontology to Barnum and Bailey, Mitchell finds a cultural symbol whose plurality of meaning and often contradictory nature is emblematic of modern society itself. As a scientific entity, the dinosaur endured a near-eclipse for over a century, but as an image it is enjoying its widest circulation. And it endures, according to Mitchell, because it is uniquely malleable, a figure of both innovation and obsolescence, massive power and pathetic failure the totem animal of modernity. Drawing unforeseen and unusual connections at every turn between dinosaurs real and imagined, The Last Dinosaur Book is the first to delve so deeply, so insightfully, and so enjoyably into our modern dino-obsession.".

Libro Original o primera edición Ejemplar firmado
Octavo. Original blue cloth, titles to spine in copper, blue endpapers. With the dust jacket. Colour illustrations throughout. Just a tiny spot of delamination at the lower edge of the jacket. An excellent, fresh copy. First edition, first printing. Presentation copy inscribed by the author to palaeontologist Stephen Jay Gould on the front free endpaper, "For Steven [sic], This was written to you. Warm regards, Tim Mitchell". Loosely inserted is a bookmark promoting Gould's talk "Pattern and Lack of Progress in the History of Life", the keynote lecture for Dinofest International 1996. The Last Dinosaur Book was the first comprehensive, critical enquiry into the depiction of dinosaurs in popular culture, revealing "a cultural symbol whose plurality of meaning and often contradictory nature is emblematic of modern society itself". Author W. J. T. Mitchell is a professor of English literature and art history at the University of Chicago. "A scholar and theorist of media, visual art, and literature, Mitchell is associated with the emergent fields of visual culture and iconology (the study of images across the media). He is known especially for his work on the relations of visual and verbal representations in the context of social and political issues" and is editor of the journal Critical Inquiry and the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship (University of Chicago biography). Recipient Stephen Jay Gould (1941-2002) was one of the leading evolutionary biologists of the 20th century. His theory of punctuated equilibria challenged the idea that evolution is a slow and constant accumulation of changes, pointing out that instead it often occurs in rapid bursts of speciation followed by periods of stasis. He was a prominent defender of teaching evolution in schools and a leading critic of the field of sociobiology, which he saw as providing a pseudoscientific basis for discrimination. But he was best known as a popular science writer, penning three hundred essays that were originally published in Natural History Magazine. Gould is cited in the text several times, on the "archetypal fascination" of dinosaurs as "alluringly scary, but sufficiently safe" because of their extinction; on their commercialisation turning them from "sources of awe into clichés and commodities"; and on contemporary scientific disputes about dinosaur biology and evolution.
