Full Description


" "Bones have an uncanny knack of holding important clues as to the fate of the individuals to whom they belonged." " As portrayed in mystery novels and more than nine television shows including "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," "American Justice" and "City Confidential," forensic anthropologists work in an environment where the stakes are high, the pressure is intense, and their findings are vital in criminal investigations. It's a fascinating and often dramatic world. Go behind the scenes with forensic anthropologists and learn about their techniques, how they locate a body, how they carefully uncover evidence, and how the unique characteristics of each body bears silent witness to age, sex, cause of death and clues as to who or what was responsible. With 29 real-life case studies and more than 350 color photographs and illustrations, Silent Witness is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the world of forensics.
