About The Author
Robert Jurmain has taught at San Jose State University since 1975. He is a Professor of Anthropology, and is currently teaching Introduction to Human Evolution; Human Heredity and Evolution; Human Origins; Evolution of Human Behavior; Monkeys, Apes, and Humans (Primate Behavior); Human Osteology; and Research Methods in Physical Anthropology. He holds an A.B. in Anthropology from UCLA, and a Ph.D. in Biological Anthropology from Harvard. His areas of research interest are skeletal biology of humans and non-human primates; paleopathology; and paleoanthropology. In addition to his three textbooks, which together have appeared in twenty editions, he is author of STORIES FROM THE SKELETON: BEHAVIORAL CONSTRUCTION IN HUMAN OSTEOLOGY (1999, Gordon and Breach Publishers).

Reader Reviews
This review is from: Introduction to Physical Anthropology (Paperback) I found this book to be an excellent introduction to physical anthropology; as an archaeology major focusing on human osteology and paleopathology, I thought this text prepared a beginning student of physical anthropology very well. The biological and behavioral principles were outlined and presented clearly, real world examples helped to create an image in the mind of the reader, and the authors gave a sense of real purpose and meaning to the work of physical anthropologists and others working in the field of anthropology and archaeology.
