Palaeopathology is an evidence-based guide to the principal types
of pathological lesions often found in human remains and how to
diagnose them. Tony Waldron presents an innovative method of
arriving at a diagnosis in the skeleton by applying what he refers
to as 'operational definitions'. The method ensures that those who
study bones will use the same criteria for diagnosing disease,
thereby enabling valid comparisons to be made between studies.
Waldron's book is based on modern clinical knowledge and provides
background information on the natural history of bone disease. In
addition, the volume demonstrates how results from studies should
be analysed, methods of determining the frequency of disease, and
other types of epidemiological analysis. This edition includes new
chapters on the development of palaeopathology, basic concepts,
health and disease, diagnosis, and spinal pathology. Chapters on
analysis and interpretation have been thoroughly revised and
enlarged.
