And with the 20th century just behind us, it's hard to forget that 191 million people lost their lives directly or indirectly through conflict. This collection of engaging case studies on violence and violent deaths reveals how violence is reconstructed from skeletal and contextual information. By sharing the complex methodologies for gleaning scientific data from human remains and the context they are found in, and complementary perspectives for examining violence from both past and contemporary societies, bioarchaeology and forensic anthropology prove to be fundamentally inseparable. This book provides a model for training forensic anthropologists and bioarchaeologists, not just in the fundamentals of excavation and skeletal analysis, but in all subfields of anthropology, to broaden their theoretical and practical approach to dealing with everyday violence.1 aMartin, Debra L.,eeditor of compilation.1 aAnderson, Cheryl P.,eeditor of compilation.08iPrint version: z9781107045446 0aCambridge Studies in Biological and Evolutionary Anthropology ;vno. 67.40uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1017/CBO9781107051409zCambridge Books Online  c236801d236801
