"The book covers a range of fundamental topics essential to modern forensic investigation. This fourth edition presents contributions from experts in the field who discuss case studies from their own personal files. The book begins by discussing the intersection of law and forensic science, how things become evidence, and how courts decide if an item or testimony should be admissible. It takes the evidence from crime scene investigation into laboratory analysis and even onto the autopsy table. The text also incorporates the wisdom of forensic practitioners who discuss the real cases they have investigated. Each section and each chapter begins with an overview and ends of summary, and key terms, review questions, and up-to-date references are provided." -- Provided by publisher.
