Book excerpt: The field of forensic anthropology has become increasingly important to other forensic scientists and to the public since the 1970s. Compiled from a symposium organised by the Mountain, Desert, and Coastal Forensic Anthropologists, this is one of the few book-length works devoted entirely to the determination of racial affiliation from skeletal remains. It is valuable for its graphic images of variation in skull and face form and covers a wide range of techniques for determining ancestry in unknown individuals.
