Investigation and Prosecution of Child Abuse
Without question, the most difficult and complex crime facing America′s investigators and prosecutors is the crime of child abuse. The limited language abilities of these victims, the rarity of traditional physical evidence, and the skepticism of the public makes the successful handling of these cases a daunting task.

The Bioarchaeology of Individuals
From Bronze Age Thailand to Viking Iceland, from an Egyptian oasis to a family farm in Canada, The Bioarchaeology of Individuals invites readers to unearth the daily lives of people throughout history. Covering a span of more than four thousand years of human history and focusing on individuals who lived between 3200 BC and the nineteenth century, the essays in this book examine the lives of nomads, warriors, artisans, farmers, and healers. The contributors employ a wide range of tools, including traditional macroscopic skeletal analysis, bone chemistry, ancient DNA, grave contexts, and local legends, sagas, and other historical information. The collection as a whole presents a series of osteobiographies--profiles of the lives of specific individuals whose remains were excavated from archaeological sites. The result offers a more "personal" approach to mortuary archaeology; this is a book about people--not just bones.
Pediatric and Adolescent Musculoskeletal MRI
Since radiologists learn by seeing, this book’s case-based format is ideal. The 102 cases unknown and 217 supplemental cases throughout depict scenarios encountered in daily practice, with emphasis on the growing area of sports injuries and traumatic disorders in older children and adolescents. The cases are illustrated with nearly 600 high-resolution MRI images, as well as complementary plain films, scintigrams, and CT scans. Each case outlines the clinical history, findings, and differential diagnosis. Clinical pearls, questions and answers, and concluding summaries are also included. An orthopedic surgeon provides commentary where appropriate to share the insight gained from sports medicine.

Ethical Issues in Child Abuse Research
This book serves as a comprehensive resource for researchers and regulatory bodies working to establish sound evidence bases through research for the care of children and families affected by abuse. Issues such as consent, anonymous research, and how to interface with the legal system in terms of disclosure and sharing of results are discussed in depth. Ethical Issues in Child Abuse Research also provides insights into questions of ethics in animal research, perpetrator and retrospective research, and balances the necessity of collecting this valuable information while protecting vulnerable populations, and respecting their privacy while interacting in a complex legal system. With input from many leaders in child abuse research, this book fills a critical need, providing readers with a pathway to apply these principles of ethics to their own research in this challenging field.
