 Bones Bones Bones June 23, 2001

If you think the book is great, so is Dr Ubelaker. Everything he teaches in his course at the George Washington University is supplemented by this book. It's phenomenal, and would give any aspiring forensic anthropologist a good foundation to study. I also recommend his book Bones, an excellent resource.

As a beginner in the field of forensic anthropology, I need a book that provides a wealth of information. This book does a good job of fulfilling that. It gives an overview all the way from skeletal recovery to aging and identifying racial identity. Ubelaker gives suggestions on the best ways to excavate and house skeletons from the field accompanied with helpful diagrams and photographs. Their are a lot of statistics and graphs in the text that may be over the heads of some people but they provide a lot of good information. He also catalogues a number of anomilies and pathologies that may be found in the skeletons. Overall, a good reference text.

Ubelaker's text has incredibly detailed descriptions of archaeological sites to accompany the wonderfully graphic sketches and photographs. This book allows neophytes and experts to enjoy and appreciate the study of human skeletal remains. I especially like his explanations of cultural manipulation of the dentition. Perfect for students of science, crime buffs and people who are interested in what clues we leave behind in our bones.
