Zusatztext "The incorporation of a radiological aspect with the traditional photographic and graphic approaches is long overdue and makes this a valuable addition to the reference library of any skeletal or forensic anthropologist."Thomas D. Holland! Ph.D.! Scientific Director! Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command Central Identification Laboratory! Hickam Air Force Base! Hawai'i ! USA "?provides readers with a user-friendly and hands-on approach to identifying and siding all elements of the human skeleton. One advantage of this text over others is its clarity of skeletal landmarks as depicted in large photographs. Another advantage is the layout of the chapters in a commonsense way that minimizes the 'seek and find' approach common to many texts. I will certainly add this to my personal library and use it as a required text in my forensic anthropology class. ?combines all of the essential elements in one text."Robert W. Mann! Ph.D.! Deputy Scientific Director! Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command! Central Identification Laboratory! Hickam Air Force Base! Hawai'i ! USA "?this unique atlas should be valuable to any student or practitioner requiring a reference work on human skeletal anatomy and radiology. ?This atlas speaks well of their experience and expertise. ?A further useful aspect of the volume is its systematic presentation of bones from both sides of the body? .In sum! this is a well-designed atlas! useful for the student! the educator! and the practitioner alike.

I congratulate the authors on this scholarly and well-produced piece of work! and I plan to recommend it to my own medical and dental school gross anatomy classes next year."American Journal of Human Biology! Vol. 17! Issue 5! Sept/Oct 2005 "What differentiates this book from other anatomical textbooks is the inclusion of a large number of plain film radiographs! CT scans and MR images! in addition to line drawings and photographs of individual bones or anatomical structures consisting of several bones. It also differs in the absence of long paragraphs of text! an intentional omission so as to make the atlas more 'user friendly'. ?many of the photographs are beautifully detailed and well labeled."-International Journal of Osteoarchaeology Informationen zum Autor Evan W.
