Marci's Anthro Page has changed. If you are looking
for all the stuff you used to see here, go to ForensicAnthro.com.
Here you will find educational resources for forensic anthropology
and human osteology students, including information on anthropology
departments and educational programs. Marci's anthro page will be
maintained to include study guides I have created for my own use
that other students may find helpful.

FROM THE PUBLISHER
Encyclopedic in scope, this covers such fascinating topics as:
• Securing a crime scene
• Identifying blood splatter patterns
• Collecting fingerprints—and feet, lip, and ear prints
• Interpreting the stages of a body's decay
• Examining hair and fiber evidence
• Trace evidence from firearms and explosives
• "Lifting" DNA prints
• Computer crime and forensic photography
• Career paths in criminal science
Lucidly written and spiked with real crime stories, The Forensic Casebook exposes the nitty gritty that other books only touch upon. Here is a reference book as addictive as a page-turning novel of suspense.
