The range of conditions described emphasizes the massive combined experience of these authors, and the objective style of the text makes this an extremely valuable reference for every forensic pathologist and an excellent teaching medium for those who are working for their boards or other qualifications.

A guide for laymen of all kinds,
This review is from: Guide to Forensic Pathology (Paperback)
This book is an excellent resource for a variety of readers who are involved with criminal investigations but don't really have all the tools and training of a full-time medical examiner. In my case, as a crime author, the text was an invaluable reference, putting some highly technical material into easily digested context. Recommended for laymen of all kinds who need a good reference work on forensic pathology.

This review is from: Guide to Forensic Pathology (Paperback)
Average read for the student of forensics. As a text book it is notvery in depth and would probably be considered amateurish, at best, for any pathology student. The book was easy to read and added to my knowledge of Forensics. I would recommend the book if you have nothing else to do. The book contains poor quality black and white photos. The book would be considerably better of printed on better quality paper and used updated imaging and photos of crime scene. The price is way out of range for the quality and quantity of information it contains. |
