Detection of Human Remains

In this updated edition of the 1990 text used by forensic specialists, a private legal investigator in Boulder, Colorado introduces the relevance of forensic anthropology and archeology to finding human remains for law enforcement purposes. Killam explains the methods employed in this quest: from ground search methods to psychics. Appendices include methodological considerations and planning checklists. This work is based on the author's master's thesis at Colorado State University and his search for a victim of a serial killer while a police officer. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
