This practical volume does not intend to replace a mentor, but acts as a readily accessible guide to the basic tools of lithic analysis. The book was awarded the 2005 SAA Award for Excellence in Archaeological Analysis. Some focuses of the manual include: history of stone tool research; procurement, manufacture and function; assemblage variability. It is an incomparable source for academic archaeologists, cultural resource and heritage management archaeologists, government heritage agencies, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students of archaeology focused on the prehistoric period.

From the reviews:
"The book is organized into six chapters, each of which is driven by a series of questions the potential lithic analyst might pose. In addition to a question driven structure, sidebars are used to make supplemental points to the primary narrative."
(William Andrefsky, Jr., Journal of Field Archaeology)
