Solid choice used for my daughter's forensic anthropology class, as I was an anthropology major in college, I wanted to read it. So I did. Solid option reminds me of my class with George Armelagos.
I used this book in the UF class Skeleton Keys. The class was enjoyable and the subject matter covered in this book is very interesting. There can be a lot of jargon though, especially in the osteology chapter. Overall, very informative book and an easy read.
