A clear introduction to the technology of the modern crime laboratory for non-scientists
Revel™ Criminalistics: An Introduction to Forensic Science
uses clear writing, case studies, and modern technology to reveal the
essence of forensic science. The text aims to make the subject of
forensic science clear and comprehensible to a wide variety of readers,
from future forensic scientists to those curious about the subject. The
nature of physical evidence is defined, and the limitations that
technology and current knowledge impose on its individualization and
characterization are examined. Updated throughout, the 13th Edition includes new information on interpreting blood stain patterns, genotyping, and bite mark comparison.
