" 'The Alternative Introduction to Biological Anthropology' by Jonathan Marks was required reading last semester as a companion to the formal textbook for my class in - you guessed it! - biological anthropology.

Each chapter ends with a list of references and further reading recommendations, should you be interested in delving a little deeper into a particular subject. ..."
