Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"I enthusiastically recommend Fundamentals of Forensic Anthropology as reading in upper level forensic anthropology courses...both strongly theoretical and practical. I also recommend it to all forensic-science professionals as a helpful reference to have at hand." (The Applied Anthropologist, Spring 2008, reviewed by Gabrielle Jones) "[The author] sets the standard for how textbooks should be engagingly written with clarity and humor." (reviewed by Jeri DeYoung, The Applied Anthropologist, Spring 2008) "...a valuable addition to the forensic science literature...essential." (CHOICE, June 2007) "...an important contribution from a well versed and experienced forensic anthropologist, and will serve as a useful summary of the state of the science today." (American Journal of Physical Anthropology, March 2007) "...the first of its level written in more than twenty years...an essential foundation for the practice of forensic anthropology." (SirReadaLot.org, August 2006) Read more...
