Exploring Physical Anthropology (A Lab Manual & Workbook)

Through examples and hands-on exercises, this laboratory manual offers a basic, yet thorough, background in the main areas of an introductory physical anthropology lab course: genetics, evolutionary forces, human osteology, forensic anthropology, comparative/functional skeletal anatomy, primate behavior, and paleoanthropology. It may also be used as a text for an introductory laboratory course in physical or biological anthropology or serve as a supplementary text or workbook for a lecture class, particularly in the absence of a laboratory offering. It can be used with a minimum of laboratory materials.
