_Developmental Juvenile Osteology_ was created as a core reference
text to document the development of the entire human skeleton from
early embryonic life to adulthood.
In the period since its first publication there has been a resurgence
of interest in the developing skeleton, and the second edition of
_Developmental Juvenile Osteology_ incorporates much of the key
literature that has been published in the intervening time.
The main core of the text persists by describing each individual
component of the human skeleton from its embryological origin through
to its final adult form. This systematic approach has been shown to
assist the processes of both identification and age estimation and
acts as a core source for the basic understanding of normal human
skeletal development. In addition to this core, new sections have been
added where there have been significant advances in the field.
* Identifies every component of the juvenile skeleton, by providing
a detailed analysis of development and ageing and a detailed
description of each bone in four ways: adult bone, early development,
ossification and practical notes
* New chapters and updated sections covering the dentition, age
estimation in the living and bone histology
* An updated bibliography documenting the research literature that
has contributed to the field over the past15 years since the
publication of the first edition
* Heavily illustrated, including new additions
