Note(s) : Notes bibliogr.
"Ancestry determination in the identification of unknown remains can be a challenge
for forensic scientists and anthropologists, especially when the remains available
for testing are limited. There are various techniques for the assessment of ancestry,
ranging from traditional to new microbiological and computer-assisted methods. Biological
Affinity in Forensic Identification of Human Skeletal Remains: Beyond Black and White
presents a range of tools that can be used to identify the probable socio-cultural
"race" category of unknown human remains"--Back cover
