Through a set of unique case studies written by an international
group of practicing forensic anthropologists, Case Studies in
Forensic Anthropology: Bonified Skeletons prepares students and
professionals for the diverse range of cases and challenges they
will encounter in the field. Every forensic anthropology case is
unique. Practitioners routinely face new challenges and unexpected
outcomes. Courses and introductory texts generally address standard
or ideal cases. In practice, however, forensic anthropologists must
improvise frequently during forensic archaeological recoveries and
laboratory analyses based on case circumstances. Most forensic
anthropologists have encountered unconventional cases with
surprising results. While these cases act as continuing education
for practitioners-better preparing them for future encounters- such
learning opportunities may be limited by the extent of personal
experiences. This text exposes practitioners and students to a
diverse array of case examples they may not otherwise encounter,
sharing experiential knowledge and contributing to the advancement
the field. Case Studies in Forensic Anthropology aims to both
prepare aspiring forensic anthropologists and inform current
practitioners. The cases are interesting and unique, detailing how
specific challenges contribute to the body of forensic
anthropological knowledge and practice. Key Features Full-color
photographs illustrate the scenes and skeletal features "Lessons
Learned" sections for each case study emphasize take-away points
Thought-provoking "Discussion Questions" encourage readers to think
critically and facilitate group discussions Actual case experiences
by diverse array of forensic anthropologists who discuss innovative
methods and unique challenges
