Not knowing a lot about forensics, I can't say whether this book is a) accurate or b) thorough. However, gave me some story ideas and did spend some time on how forensics was handled through the years, so I could extrapolate a reasonable investigation in, say, 15th-century China, if I wanted to. Good enough for me :) The lack of fifth star came from the poor editing, though. Not atrocious, just...surprisingly poor. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Just because you don't have all the tools and training of a full-time medical examiner doesn't mean you can't learn your way around a crime scene. In Forensics, award-winning author and TV show consultant D.P.

This comprehensive reference guide includes: * Real-life case files and the role forensic evidence played in solving the crimes * A breakdown of the forensics system from its history and organization to standard evidence classification and collection methods * Detailed information on what a dead body can reveal--including the cause, mechanism, and manner of death * The actual steps taken to preserve a crime scene and the evidence that can be gathered there, such as bloodstains, documents, fingerprints, tire impressions, and more Forensics is the ultimate resource for learning how to accurately imbue your stories with authentic details of untimely demises.

Beginning with the Forensics System, readers investigate the history of forensic science before moving on to the work of the coroner. The Crime Scene and The Crime Lab follow with investigations into fingerprints, bloodstains, impressions, trace evidence, firearms, arson, handwriting and forgery, and criminal psychology.
The inclusion of real-life cases and the examination of the role forensic evidence played in solving the crime make for informative [if occasionally a bit gruesome] reading. An appendix offers details on forensic science tools.
Highly recommended. ( )
