Bone Histology: An Anthropological Perspective brings together authors with extensive experience and expertise in various aspects of hard tissue histology to provide a comprehensive discussion of the application of methods, current theories, and future directions in hard tissue research related to anthropological questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTopics discussed include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \n\u003cbr\u003eThe biology underlying skeletal growth and development leading to adult skeletal morphology\n\u003cbr\u003eCurrent research in understanding in bone modeling\n\u003cbr\u003eHistological features of dental hard tissues and their utility in biological anthropology\n\u003cbr\u003eHistological analysis as a means to differentiate human from nonhuman bone and for the purpose of age estimation\n\u003cbr\u003eThe biomechanics of cortical bone\n\u003cbr\u003eHistotaphonomy and how postmortem microstructural change can be used for taphonomic inquiry\n\u003cbr\u003eThe application of light microscopy in paleopathology to classify pathological conditions\n\u003cbr\u003eThe histological study of bone tissue of archaeological origin\n\u003cbr\u003eResearchers' access to collections of bone samples with known demographic information\n\u003cbr\u003eTechnological aspects of hard tissue histology, including laboratory requirements and high-resolution imaging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn most cases, the physical remains of humans available to bioarchaeologists, paleopathologists, and paleontologists are limited to skeletal material. Fortunately, these hard tissues are a storehouse of information about biological processes experienced during the life of an individual. This volume provides an overview of the current state of research and potential applications in anthropology and other fields that employ a histological approach to the study of hard tissues.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CRC Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48771521773803,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":457.78,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781439866917-1.jpg?v=1781680181","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781439866917","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
