Reviews

From the reviews: In this book, prominent forensic experts explain the capabilities and limitations of modern forensic laboratory procedures, techniques, analyses, and interpretations. ! The book is mainly aimed at a lay audience, which believes to know about the work of forensic scientists from television programs such as 'CSI' and 'Forensic Files.' ! the book is also interesting and entertaining for forensic specialists who want to get a general idea of related disciplines. (A. Schmeling, International Journal of Legal Medicine, Vol. 121, 2007)
