Reviews
?I learned a lot reviewing this book and I have been in forensic toxicology for forty years. I even found references to research I had
published in my early years. So I can state that the contributors have done a great job in their historical entries. At first glance
you may suspect that it deals only with drug identification, but it goes beyond solid or liquid dosage form identification. It includes
coverage of blood and urine analysis as well as hair and saliva. Each chapter is heavily referenced. Dr. Fred Smith edits the book with
eleven well recognized experts in their fields. This book is not a textbook, but a very useful reference book and belongs in the libraries
of colleges and universities that offer programs in criminal justice or forensic science. All crime labs should have this book in the
library.? – Forensic Science International
?The editor and authors have done a fine job of providing up-to-date information on analytical
techniques, instrumentation and methods for the drugs most commonly seen in forensic drug laboratories.
This reviewer was glad to see
that the book includes a chapter on illicit drug manufacture, an area far too often not included in this type of book.
Overall, this
is a well written, comprehensive, informative book written by authors who are extremely well qualified and knowledgeable in their respective
fields. It would be a fine addition to the library of any laboratory involved in the analysis of drugs of abuse.? – Ashraf Mozayani,
