An essential for gross anatomy students!
I am a chiropractic student and this book is absolutely amazing. Before I bought it I would flip back and forth between my other atlases trying to get a comprehensive understanding of the joints. With this book it explains things in an orderly fashion and is very easy to read. It also has all of the minor ligaments that are much more difficult to find in other books. I HIGHLY recommend it!

Fascinating!!!
Pat Shipman and Alan Walker are not only brilliant scientists, but also superb authors. Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down. Excellent for aspiring anthropologists, like myself, and ANYONE interested in human origins. Fantastic writing, excellent research. In fact, every book this husband and wife team has written is fantastic. TAKING WING by Pat Shipman, about ...

Stroll With Bones!
This is a great collection of some of T-Bone's best stuff. And all the cuts in this book; except for 'Bye Bye Baby', 'Vida Lee', and 'Low Down Dirty Shame Blues', can be found in the 90 track CD collection 'T-Bone Walker - The Original Source' by Proper Records. There's other discography given in the book, only not as recent as Proper's 4 CD box set, which goes for around $22; such things I know ...

Bone Walker
I found myself in agreement with other readers in that the lives and times of Browser and Catkin are far more interesting than Dusty and Maureen's pathetic F'ed up 20th century existences. So, to get an expansive uninterrupted narrative simply skip the chapters pertaining to Dusty's unresolved childhood issues. That would be every other chapter if you're keeping score.

WOW!
Absolutely amazing in its story and creativity. My girls love this book. We ordered this for the local library so everyone could enjoy. My three year old has really bonded with frog belly and chants the funny saying. This is a simple but beautiful story.

Your intro to the Nariokotome boy
Palaeoanthropology is a favorite topic of mine; I've read quite a few books on human origins and evolution, but this one is one of the best. The author does not merely dig up this skeleton of the Nariokotome boy, a 9-12 year old Homo erectus, describe it, and then move on to the next set of bones. Rather, he inquires deeply into everything this skeleton can tell him about its species and to do ...

Finally! Some honest historical fiction for the YA reader.
Branford has crafted a powerful piece of historical fiction about fourteenth century England and has done so in a manner that honors the Young Adult audience's often ignored right to realistic, unromantic history. Her narrator, a wise, nameless hound is endearing but never cute. Through her eyes we witness the brutality and social upheaval of the late Middle Ages. This sage old dog, so unlike ...

Back in print
The author of this book, Larry McCabe, is re-releasing books that have gone out of print for one reason or another. This particular book is an old friend. After I received it, I went into my library and found a copy. It has been in print in one form or another for 25 years. Most instruction books don't last anywhere near that long. First, this book (as the author warns) is not for beginners. ...

One of the most disappointing books I have read
The subject of this book is one of the most amazing musicians/artists/showmen of all time. Unfortunately the writer treats the subject in a disjointed, disorganized, almost incomprehensible manner. There is no chronological methodology to the story, characters appear from nowhere with no clue as to who they are or what role they play in this man's life. One third of the way into the book a son ...

Homo erectus - Ape? Man? Or Ape-Man?
This book on Homo erectus specimen KNM-WT 15000 is nicely done. Dozens of pictures make for easy comparison to other primates. The pictures are scaled at 90 percent, and are in black and white (which was a let down for [the price]. Some great info and pictures on the dentition of the Turkana specimen are included, including the unusually large roots. This book is not an easy read, but will ...

A complete picture
This book covers bone biology, bone structure and function (particularly useful are the drawings of muscle attachments), and the interpretation of bones (age, sex, race, stature, trauma, disease, etc.). A very good book to gain understanding of why bones have the morphology they do.
