Asymptomatic Osseous Variations of the Postcranial Human Skeleton
ISTE Ltd and John Wiley & Sons Inc (Verlag)
978-1-78630-880-1 (ISBN)
This book provides an easily accessible presentation of the osseous variations of the postcranial skeleton (from the spine to the feet), which are sometimes poorly understood by the scientific community. These variations are examined one by one, with definitions, population frequencies and complete illustrations given for each.
Asymptomatic Osseous Variations of the Postcranial Human Skeleton is intended as a comprehensive reference manual for further research on these types of skeletal variations.
Emeline Verna is a lecturer in Biological Anthropology at the Université d'Aix-Marseille, France. Her specialties include human osteology and her research focuses on human skeletal variability and anatomical variations in particular.
