A PHOTOGRAPHIC ATLAS FOR PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY

Paul F. Whitehead
William K. Sacco
Susan B. Hochgraf
Morton Publishing Company, 2005

FROM THE PRESS RELEASE
This full-color atlas, with approximately 900 professional photographs
gives detailed coverage of a wide variety of subject matter that is
unequalled in currently available textbooks and lab manuals. It can be used
in conjunction with your current textbook or original journal article
readings to provide a visual representation of the material that your
students study and discuss. It is both comparative and functional in its
approach. It is a useful guide if your school has a good collection of
osteological material and of fossil casts. Furthermore, it is an invaluable
visual representation for students who do not have hands-on experience with
specimens.
