The book is divided into three main sections. The first section clearly outlines datasets and methods within biological distance analysis, beginning with a brief history of the field and how it has progressed to its current state. The second section focuses on approaches using the individual within a forensic context, including ancestry estimation and case studies. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe final section concentrates on population-based bioarchaeological approaches, providing key techniques and examples from archaeological samples.
