Description
Forensic Pathology: Principles and Practice is an extensively illustrated reference book that contains more than 1800 color photographs
accompanied by well-considered text that thoroughly explains representative topics, and also provides abundant, up-to-date references
for further reading. This well-written volume uses a case-oriented format to address, explain and guide the reader through the varied
topics encountered by forensic pathologists. It will benefit not only the experienced forensic pathologist, but also the hospital pathologist
who occasionally performs medicolegal autopsies. Doctors in training and those law enforcement officials investigating the broad spectrum
of sudden, unexpected and violent deaths that may fall within the jurisdiction of medicolegal death investigators will also find this
an invaluable resource.
Audience
Pathologists, Forensic Pathologists, Medical Examiners, medical and forensic science students, law enforcement, crime scene investigators, Attorneys, fellows and students of the medical sciences
