Biological Anthropology, Canadian Edition

Biological Anthropology offers introductory anthropology students up-to-date, comprehensive coverage of the foundations of the field, with a modern biological approach that includes modern innovations and discoveries in fields that have become major areas of research in recent years. This is the only book that integrates the foundations and the most current innovations in the field from the ground up. As the first Canadian Biological Anthropology text, this book offers significant coverage of the research of Canadian biological anthropologists and affiliated scientists, and includes an entire chapter devoted to human skeletal biology and forensic anthropology, which are taught as part of the Canadian curriculum but not found in American texts.
