This advanced textbook provides the reader with an up-to-date
account of recent developments and future potential in the study of
human skeletons from both an archaeological and forensic context.
It is well-illustrated, comprehensive in its coverage and is
divided into six sections for ease of reference, encompassing such
areas as palaeodemography, juvenile health and growth, disease and
trauma, normal skeletal variation, biochemical and microscopic
analyses and facial reconstruction. Each chapter is written by a
recognised specialist in the field, and includes in-depth
discussion of the reliability of methods, with appropriate
references, and current and future research directions. It is
essential reading for all students undertaking osteology as part of
their studies and will also prove a valuable reference for forensic
scientists, both in the field and the laboratory.
