This little spiral bound book goes to the lab with me everyday. Buikstra and Ubelaker have combined information from multiple authors to explain the procedures of analyzing human skeletal remains. The forms in the back of the book are the standard forms for skeletal inventory and analysis used in labs througout the country. This book will satisfy both a beginner, and an advanced scientist, however may be difficult for some beginners to understand without some knowledge of osteology. Anyone going into forensic anthropology or bioarchaeology will need this book!

This book contains the ABC of forensic anthropology. It provides a set of standard measurements used by every forensic anthropologists in the US.

This book gives the forms you will be using as with the information you will need to put on the forms and with detail to why and where. It is black and white print no colors to the pictures, but gives great examples to what you're needing to look for on a bone to identify what trauma, pathology or taphonomy you may have when your in your field work.Plus many other great up-to-date information.
