This new edition is a go-to reference on forensic taphonomy-the actual modifications to an individual bone or assemblage of bones. Expert contributors classify such alterations to remains, explaining their significance, demonstrating how to differentially diagnose among them when possible, and how this can aid forensic investigations.

With over 30 years of experience, he has assisted federal, state, local, and non-US authorities in the identification, analysis, and documentation of those suspected to be victims of trauma. Dr. Symes has been qualified as an expert for both the prosecution and defense, testifying specifically on forensic tool mark and fracture pattern interpretation in bone, as well as blunt force, ballistic, burned and healing trauma in bone.
