A Companion to Forensic Anthropology presents the most comprehensive assessment of the philosophy, goals, and practice of forensic anthropology currently available, with chapters by renowned international scholars and experts.
  • Highlights the latest advances in forensic anthropology research, as well as the most effective practices and techniques used by professional forensic anthropologists in the field
  • Illustrates the development of skeletal biological profiles and offers important new evidence on statistical validation of these analytical methods.
  • Evaluates the goals and methods of forensic archaeology, including the preservation of context at surface-scattered remains, buried bodies and fatal fire scenes, and recovery and identification issues related to large-scale mass disaster scenes and mass grave excavation.

Reviews
"In summary, Dirkmaat's volume would seem to succeed in its stated goal of providing a timely and thorough supplement to generalized textbooks of forensic anthropology."

Journal Forensic Sciences

"There are of course a number of excellent chapters from some of the big hitters in the discipline and it is not surprising that the volume is perhaps on firmest ground in areas such as Forensic Osteology,Skeletal Trauma Analysis and Forensic Taphonomy." (Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2015)

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
