Reviews for Forensic Anthropology Laboratory Manual
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
