Her narrative follows the skeleton from the top of the skull to the small bones in the foot. Each step of the journey includes an explanation of the biology--how the bone is formed in a person's development, how it changes as we age, the secrets it may hold--and is illustrated with anecdotes from the author's career helping solve crimes and identifying human remains, whether recent or historical. Written in Bone is full of entertaining stories that read like scenes from a true-life CSI drama, infused with humor and no-nonsense practicality about the realities of corpses and death." -- inside front jacket flap. A forensic anthropologist and human anatomist recounts her life stories to explain how a person's life history is revealed through their bones.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 363.25092 Black Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.25092 Black Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 363.25092 Black Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.25092 Black Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.25092 Black Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList
