Comparative Skeletal Anatomy Reviews

From the reviews:

The goal is to provide the medico-legal community a resource for the comparison and discrimination of animal and human bone. As the first book of its kind, Comparative Skeletal Anatomy is a well-organized and useful contribution to the forensic literature. ... a systematic and logical means of visually comparing the morphology and size of human bones to common animal counterparts. ... is both a useful resource for archaeologists and medico-legal specialists, as well as a valuable training text for students of human anatomy and osteology. (Tracy L. Rogers, Canadian Society of Forensic Science Journal, August, 2008)
