Book excerpt: Quantitative Paleozoology describes and illustrates how the remains of long-dead animals recovered from archaeological and paleontological excavations can be studied and analyzed.

All methods are described and illustrated with data from real collections, while numerous graphs illustrate various quantitative properties.
