A review Karin Wiltschke-Schrotta, Eduard Winter and Michelle Gamble; 12. 'Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence': why is there a lack of evidence for cardiovascular disease in the bioarchaeological record? Michaela Binder and Charlotte A. Roberts; Part III. 'Contemporary Perspectives': 13.
