A perennial bestseller, Soluri and Agarwal’s Laboratory Manual and Workbook for Biological Anthropology sets a new standard in its Third Edition. Enhanced ebook features, updated exercises, and refreshed visuals make exploring human, primate, and fossil evidence more interactive and engaging. The Third Edition’s emphasis on ethics, equity, and real-world relevance reflects current disciplinary conversations and highlights contemporary anthropology's commitment to diversity, sustainability, and responsible research.Suitable for any course format, the Third Edition can be assigned alongside any introductory textbook or as a comprehensive standalone resource. Supported by robust student and instructor resources, it continues to deliver an exceptional lab experience at an exceptional value.Highlights of the Third Edition:• Ethics and representation are interwoven throughout all labs, reflecting current disciplinary discussions about the field’s colonial foundations. All images of human remains comply with current ethical standards, ensuring consent from donors or descendant communities.• Connect your students to the living field through the latest discoveries and voices driving the discipline forward. Recent discoveries are incorporated throughout the manual with figures, maps, timelines, and diagrams of the latest primate and fossil findings. Profiles of contemporary scholars have been updated and moved earlier in each chapter for stronger thematic integration.• Keep students engaged and on track in any teaching format. Revisions informed by instructor and student feedback make exercises clearer and more adaptable for in-person, online, and hybrid learning environments. Most labs have been revised, replaced, or newly developed to sustain engagement and discourage online answer sharing. Questions highlight current, real-world topics—such as public health and science communication—and encourage engagement with contemporary media sources.

She has conducted anthropological field and laboratory research across the United States, including work in Valley Forge National Historical Park, Hawaii, and the central California coast. Elizabeth is especially interested in pedagogy and issues of student learning, and her ongoing research focuses on redesigning, implementing, and evaluating effective teaching methods for undergraduate anthropology courses, particularlybiological anthropology. Elizabeth has over 15 years of experience teaching anthropology courses at 2-year and 4-year institutions throughout the San Francisco Bay area, most recently as tenured faculty at Cabrillo College, where she received a teaching award selected by students. She is currently an Archaeological Research Facility Partner at the University of California, Berkeley, and she continues her work on pedagogy and student success.Sabrina C. Agarwal (University of California, Berkeley) is Professor and Chair of the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley. She received her M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Toronto. Her interests center on age, sex, and gender-related changes in bone quantity and quality, with a focus on biocultural and life course approaches to bone maintenance, fragility, and stress. She applies this research to broader questions of social identity, embodiment, developmental plasticity, and inequality in bioarchaeology. Her current research is also engaged in the bioethics of skeletal biology and bioarchaeology, specifically the practice of curation and repatriation of human remains, and the history and ethics of eating animals. She is also interested in the philosophies of teaching and actively involved in the pedagogical training of college instructors, and she has been awarded numerous teaching grants and honors, including the UCB Distinguished Teaching Award, the highest campus award for excellence in teaching. She is co-founder of the Western Bioarchaeology Group (WeBiG), the Bioarchaeology Interest Group in the Society for American Archaeology (SAA), and she was co-founding Editor of Bioarchaeology International.
