"Tim

Pieter
Folkens’sThe
Human
Bone
Manualis
a
terrific
addition
to
the
tool
kit
of
osteologists
and
archaeologists.
The
book-concise,
tightly
written,
and
rich
in

detail-will
be
the
standard
human
identification
reference
for
generations
to
come.
Every

will
depend

it."

"As a human osteology manual, this book is an excellent resource for archaeologists, palaeontologists and forensic anthropologists. It is a thoroughly written, well illustrated and can be highly recommended." --Francis Thackeray, Transvaal Museum, Pretoria, South Africa
"This volume is a compact form of previously highly successful editions ofHuman Osteologyby these same authors. In its newest form it is somewhat abbreviated, but is nevertheless an extraordinarily accurate and complete guide to all of the fundamentals of osteoanthropology. The illustrations retain their same vivid three dimensional quality as in previous editions, and the accuracy and thorough review of all major methods (aging, sexing, excavation, laboratory care, etc.) have been retained. It is the perfect companion text and manual for any undergraduate or graduate human osteology course, and is equally highly recommended as well to students of medicine, dentistry, physical therapy, chiropractic, etc., simply because it presents such clear and instructive presentations of fundamental human anatomy. It is, quite simply, the best human anatomy manual currently available." --C. Owen Lovejoy, Kent State University
