Author Description

This annotated bibliography presents and describes over 800 books, dissertations, excavation reports, and articles relevant to the paleopathology of the ancient Egyptians from the fields of Egyptology, physical anthropology, archaeology, and medicine, making it possible for scholars in these different fields to keep current with the latest finds and results. Each source has a short annotation, explaining its relevant pathological information, so that scholars can ascertain whether or not any particular source is germane to their own research, as well as being able to see what is being studied and published by others. In particular, this bibliography will be an immense help to scholars outside the field of Egyptology who want to know about the newest excavations with human remains. This updated bibliography is indispensable for scholars as well as non-specialists who are intrigued with this area of study, particularly forensic pathologists, medical researchers, historians of medicine, and mummy enthusiasts.
