Description
The
Encyclopedia of Forensic Sciences is the first resource to provide comprehensive coverage of the core theories, methods,
techniques, and applications employed by forensic scientists. One of the more pressing concerns in forensic science is the collection
of evidence from the crime scene and its relevance to the forensic analysis carried out in the laboratory. The
Encyclopedia
will serve to inform both the crime scene worker and the laboratory worker of their protocols, procedures, and limitations. The more
than 200 articles contained in the
Encyclopedia form a repository of core information that will be of use to instructors,
students, and professionals in the criminology, legal, and law enforcement communities.
Audience:
Forensic science laboratories, police departments, academic libraries, law firms and law school libraries, academic departments teaching forensics, government agencies, and public libraries.
