Bass, WM
Professor Emeritus and Director, Forensic Anthropology Center, University of Tennessee, TN

Abstract

The first edition of this Field Guide was published in 1987. It is designed for the professional forensic anthropologist and assumes that the user has a good background in human skeletal and dental anatomy. Bennett found in his 25 plus years as a forensic anthropologist that it was “advantageous for forensic anthropologist to have quick access to information pertinent to procedures involved in human identification.” (v) The tables, illustrations and procedural guides found here have either been abstracted or reprinted from previous publications.
