Essentials of Physical Anthropology

I used this book for my physical anthropology class last semester and it is really great! It's nice and short and packed with so much information. I actually wish I hadnt sold the book back after the semester was over because it was so great.

The book came on time and in the great condition. Thank you, I would definetely order from you again.

Very good. Great condition, and it is what I needed, and it was availible a heck of alot cheaper than at the book stores on campus.

This is the best physical anthorpology text i have seen, it is engaging and very well organized, it deals with great skill and knowledge with typical issues for this scientific field, transfering the much needed information to college students. I recomend it wholeheartedly.

I bought this book for a lower-division anthropology class, and found it one of the few books used for college that i actually enjoyed reading. The writing is clear and straightforward, and the book has many maps, pictures, tables, and diagrams for understanding major points and for visual stimulation. Besides the evolution of modern humans from primate ancestors, the book also provides an introduction to genetics, primate behavior, important archaeological finds, human variation and adaptations, and more. I'm not an anthropologist so I can't attest to the accuracy of the book, but as a biology student I enjoyed it thoroughly and recommend it. Minus one star because for the price it should go into a bit more detail.
