Both Kimmerle (anthropology, U. of South Florida, Tampa) and Baraybar (U. of Strasbourg, France) have worked as forensic experts at numerous sights of human rights abuses around the world. Designed as a guiding tool for forensic scientists, human rights activists, and humanitarian workers, their text focuses on the process of skeletal trauma identification in the context of large-scale human rights violations or armed conflict, with examples taken from regions of the Americas, Europe, and Asia. The authors explain the mechanisms of injuries interpreted from skeletal remains, synthesize the variation in wounding patterns, and provide an epidemiological framework for interpreting physical evidence for use at trial. Twenty-six leading international scholars and practitioners from anthropology, pathology, and forensics have also contributed their research, cases, and photographs to 16 case studies distributed among the chapters. Illustrated with b&w and color photographs and diagrams. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
