Download or read book Modern Morphometrics in Physical Anthropology written by Dennis E. Slice and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morphometrics has undergone a revolutionary transformation in the past two decades as new methods have been developed to address shortcomings in the traditional multivirate analysis of linear distances, angles, and indices. While there is much active research in the field, the new approaches to shape analysis are already making significant and ever-increasing contributions to biological research, including physical anthropology. Modern Morphometrics in Physical Anthropology highlights the basic machinery of the most important methods, while introducing novel extensions to these methods and illustrating how they provide enhanced results compared to more traditional approaches. Modern Morphometrics in Physical Anthropology provides a comprehensive sampling of the applications of modern, sophisticated methods of shape analysis in anthropology, and serves as a starting point for the exploration of these practices by students and researchers who might otherwise lack the local expertise or training to get started. This text is an important resource for the general morphometric community that includes ecologists, evolutionary biologists, systematists, and medical researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides expert information about physical manual anthropology and its application in the study and research of the biological variability of humans and human populations in time and space. The book is written for students of healthcare disciplines, for students of medicine, for students of teaching degrees in human biology and kinanthropometry, and for postgraduate students and professionals (doctors, coaches, nutrition advisors, etc.). The book is divided into eight chapters. The first chapter introduces physical anthropology, explaining its position and goals in the system of anthropological disciplines. This is followed by a chapter presenting the standardized methods of anthropometry and a chapter describing the organization of anthropological research and presenting a historical overview of major anthropological surveys. The subsequent chapters outline methods designed to evaluate body composition and human constitution and methods assessing the physical growth and development of children. The last chapter but one details methods serving to assess the physical parameters of an individual or group compared to the standard using the Z-score. The final chapter sets out the anthropometric instruments used in physical anthropometry and describes their technical parameters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is virtually required reading for biological anthropologists and will be a useful, up-to-date primer on osteological analyses for a wider audience." —The Quarterly Review of Biology, March 2009 "... a comprehensive guide to the ever-changing discipline of physical anthropology... provides an in depth introduction to human skeletal biology. The structure of the book makes it easy for the reader to follow the progression of the field of human skeletal biology." —PaleoAnthropology, 2009 Issue The First Edition of Biological Anthropology of the Human Skeleton is the market-leading reference and textbook on the scientific analysis of human skeletal remains recovered from archaeological sites. Now, featuring scores of new or thoroughly revised content, this Second Edition provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the topic available. Like the previous edition, this Second Edition is organized into five parts with contributing chapters written by experts in the field of human skeletal biology: Part One covers theory and application; Part Two discusses morphological analyses of bone, teeth, and age changes; Part Three reviews prehistoric health and disease; Part Four examines chemical and genetic analysis of hard tissues; and Part Five closes with coverage of quantitative methods and population studies. Each chapter includes a review of recent studies, descriptions of analytical techniques and underlying assumptions, theory, methodological advances, and speculation about future research. New or thoroughly revised content includes: Techniques in the analysis of human skeletal and dental remains Extensive coverage of new technologies, including modern morphometric techniques Advances in the field of forensic anthropology Enhanced discussion of ethical terms regarding the study of aboriginal peoples' remains where those people are no longer the dominant culture This book serves as an indispensable research guide to biological anthropologists, osteologists, paleoanthropologists, and archaeologists. Now with a stronger focus on teaching complex material to students, this revised edition provides enhanced case studies and discussions for future directions, making it an invaluable textbook for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in biological anthropology and forensic anthropology programs.

Book excerpt: Anthropometry which describes the tools and techniques for taking various measurements on the living human being and the skeleton is not only important to the teachers and students but also of great use to research workers. The introductory chapter briefly describes the evolution of anthropometry as a scientific tool and touches upon important landmarks used in its development. Chapter II describes the various instruments and items of equipment used for studies in this field and has been adequately illustrated by suitable diagrams. Somatometric techniques, the landmarks in the body used in measurements, the various types of measurements their expression and the indices derived there from the subject matter of Chapter III. Also, it includes a brief outline on Somatoscopy. Chapter IV and V are devoted to Osteology and Osteometry and indicate the various terminologies used and provide an extensive description of the actual measurements on the various bones of the body. The chapters include an adequate number of diagrams of the various bones indicating clearly the landmarks. Chapter VI is devoted to Craniometry and Chapter VII briefly highlights the importance of Statistics in the selection of samples, treatment and presentation of anthropometric data. The book will be great use as a manual to students and research workers in the field of Biological Anthropology/Human Biology.

Download or read book Virtual Anthropology written by Gerhard W. Weber and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first textbook of Virtual Anthropology, the new science that combines elements from fields as diverse as anthropology, medicine, statistics, computing, scientific visualization, and industrial design. The book is intended for students in any of these or nearby fields within biology, medicine, or engineering and for teachers, journalists, and all others who will enjoy the many examples from our real biological world. After a general introduction to the field and an overview, the book is organized around six themes conveyed in more than 300 pages of text accompanied by hundreds of carefully annotated images: medical imaging and 3D digitising techniques, electronic preparation of individual specimens, analysis of complex forms in space one or many at a time, reconstruction of forms that are partly missing or damaged, production of real objects from virtual models, and, finally, thoughts about data accessibility and sharing and the implications of all this for the future of anthropology. The authors' emphasis is not on technical details but rather on step-by-step explanations of the wealth of examples included here, from brain evolution to surgical planning, always in light of the relevance of these approaches to science and to society. All readers are encouraged to try out the techniques on their own using the tools and data included in the Online Extra Materials resource.
