Product Description

Review

'if one were to ask one hundred forensic scientists to define forensic science it is possible that one would receive one hundred different definitions'. Peter White, the editor, has done an excellent job once again in bringing together a collection of chapters which explore and explain this great diversity. The new chapters addressing techniques are forensic ecology, forensic entomology and forensic archaeology and forensic anthropology. It is clear from this book that forensic science is at its best when groups of specialists collaborate. I commend this book to students and practitioners of forensic science and indeed to all with an interest in the subject. -- Chemistry World, January 2011, Matthew Almond, Chemistry World --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Product Description

This work covers all three main areas of an investigation where forensic science is practised, namely the scene of the crime, the forensic laboratory and the court. Coverage includes details of how crime scene and forensic examinations are conducted in the United Kingdom, the principles of crime scene investigations and the importance of this work in an investigation, and courtroom procedures and the role of the expert witness. The latest methods and techniques used in crime scene investigation and forensic laboratories are reported, cases are presented to illustrate why and how examinations are performed to generate forensic evidence and there is a bibliography for each chapter which provides further material for those readers wishing to delve deeper into the subject.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent source for reference, 9 Dec 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Crime Scene to Court: Essentials of Forensic Science (Paperback)
I recently qualified as a CSI and this book was reccommended, having had a chance to quickly view its contents prior to purchase. The book delivers excellent detail and will be used for reference or indeed as background reading to anyone interested in a career in this field.

4.0 out of 5 stars University core text, 14 Jan 2001
This review is from: Crime Scene to Court: Essentials of Forensic Science (Paperback)
I found this book a great source of information and understanding during the first year of my degree in forensic science. I am yet to find whether it will be as useful in the second year. Great so far!
