"The fifth edition of Forensic Anthropology Laboratory Manual is a welcome and necessary compliment to the textbook, Introduction to Forensic Anthropology. Designed to work in conjunction with the book chapters, the lab manual elaborates on specific concepts and provides an easy to follow lab exercise that illustrates the application of those concepts. Topics that were once difficult to convey to students have now been simplified and explained in this lab manual, allowing the student to fully immerse in the current and challenging field of Forensic Anthropology." - Ann Marie Mires, Director of Forensic Criminology at Anna Maria College, USA "Steven Byers' 4th edition is the new gold standard for forensic methods. Students use the Lab Manual to understand and easily master the hands-on techniques of forensics. Each exercise clearly links lecture content to experiential learning. This edition isn't just required reading for the students, its also my favorite lab partner." - Monica Faraldo, Department of Anthropology, University of Miami, USA

Byers' publications with Routledge include this title's sister volume Introduction to Forensic Anthropology (in its 5th edition).
Zusammenfassung
This manual provides students in academic laboratory courses with hands-on experience of the major processes of forensic anthropology. Designed to accompany the textbook Introduction to Forensic Anthropology, **the manual introduces core procedures and protocol, with exercise worksheets to reinforce the methodologies of forensic anthropology and enhance student comprehension. For the fourth edition, the manual has been updated in line with the textbook, incorporating new methods, figures, and worksheets. Each chapter contains explanations of the terminology, osteological features, and measurements needed to understand each of the topics. Chapters may be covered in one session or multiple sessions and include lists of both basic and optional lab materials, enabling instructors to tailor each lab to the resources they have available.
