Abstract

Forensic anthropology, while still relatively in its infancy compared to other forensic science disciplines, adopts a wide array of methods from many disciplines for human skeletal identification in medico-legal and humanitarian contexts. The human skeleton is a dynamic tissue that can withstand the ravages of time given the right environment and may be the only remaining evidence left in a forensic case whether a week or decades old. Improved understanding of the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that modulate skeletal tissues allows researchers and practitioners to improve the accuracy and precision of identification methods ranging from establishing a biological profile such as estimating age-at-death, and population affinity, estimating time-since-death, using isotopes for geolocation of unidentified decedents, radiology for personal identification, histology to assess a live birth, to assessing traumatic injuries and so much more.

Abstract

The Analysis of Burned Human Remains, Second Edition, provides a primary source for osteologists and the medical/legal community for the understanding of burned bone remains in forensic or archaeological contexts. It describes in detail the changes in human bone and soft tissues as a body burns at both the chemical and gross levels and provides an overview of the current procedures in burned bone study. Case studies in forensic and archaeological settings aid those interested in the analysis of burned human bodies, from death scene investigators to biological anthropologists.A comprehensive and updated reference for osteologists and the medico-legal community charged with analyzing burned human remains from forensic and archaeological contextsDescribes, in detail, the changes in human bone and soft tissues as a body burnsIdeal title for those researching cremation, osteology, bioarchaeology, forensic anthropology, skeletal biology, and taphonomyIncludes case studies in forensics and archaeological settings to aid those interested in the analysis of burned human bodies.

Abstract

"En 2018 el Equipo Argentino de Antropología Forense fue distinguido por el Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales y la Universidad Nacional de Quilmes con el Premio Latinoamericano Juan Gelman por su compromiso con las ciencias sociales y la defensa de los derechos humanos. Ciencia por la verdad es parte de ese reconocimiento y conmemora los 35 años de trabajo en la búsqueda y restitución de la identidad de miles de personas desaparecidas tanto en Argentina, como en América Latina y en el resto del mundo. El libro recopila 35 historias que, como un tejido, se unen unam otras para dar cuenta de una experiencia colectiva guiada por la comunicación con los familiares, el rigor científico y el intachable trabajo de más de una generación."_Cubierta.

Abstract

Forensic facial reconstruction is the reproduction of an individual's face from skeletal remains. Used when other forms of identification are very difficult or impossible, it can give a name to the dead in forensic cases, or in archaeological contexts, provide a tangible impression of real individuals from our past. This comprehensive work starts with a discussion of the importance of the face in society and the history of facial reconstruction, going on to evaluate the accuracy of modern reconstruction methods. The Manchester method of facial reconstruction, and the relationships between the hard and soft tissues of the face are described in detail. Uniquely, it also describes the methods and problems associated with reconstructing the faces of children. Collating all published facial tissue data and describing tissue variations with reference to age, sex, stature and ethnic origin, this book will be an important reference volume for all practitioners in the field.
