Forensic Facial Reconstruction
Editorial Reviews
Review
'The book achieves its goal to provide an authoritative resource for a small yet complex and highly significant part in identifying the deceased. By filling the gaps left by other reference texts and presenting an overview of so many disciplines, this work will be a useful addition to the bookshelves of many professionals.' International Journal of Osteoarchaeology
Book Description
This book's major contributions include a detailed description of the Manchester method of facial reconstruction, using all the available published data on tissue depths and variation with age, sex, stature and ethnic origin. Caroline Wilkinson also includes an evaluation of the methods and problems associated with reconstructing the faces of children. Forensic facial reconstruction reproduces an individual's face from skeletal remains. Used when identification is otherwise impossible, it can give a name to the dead in forensic cases, or in archaeological contexts, provide a tangible impression of real individuals from our past.
