Henry Lee's Crime Scene Handbook
Even a seemingly trivial mistake in how physical evidence is collected and handled can jeopardise an entire criminal case. The authors present this guide to crime scene procedures, a practical handbook designed for all involved in such work.
Forensic Botany
Increasingly, forensic scientists use plant evidence to reconstruct crimes. The forensic aspects of this subject require an understanding of what is necessary for botanical evidence to be accepted in our judicial system. Bringing together the latest information into a single resource, Forensic Botany: Principles and Applications to Criminal
Forensic Science and Law
Forensic science has undergone dramatic progress in recent years, including in the areas of DNA collection and analysis and the reconstruction of crime scenes.

Summary of Diane Fanning's Written in Blood
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On December 9, 2001, Mary Allen took the first step onto the world stage of a long-playing drama when she answered a call from Michael Peterson, who was frantic that his wife, Elizabeth, was not breathing. #2 When the paramedics arrived at the Peterson house, they were shocked by the amount of blood on the stairs. Kathleen’s body was sprawled across the floor of the hallway, her legs spread wide. Her neck was exposed as if on a sacrificial altar. #3 The emergency medical technicians worked the rapid assessment protocol with efficiency and few words exchanged. They determined that Kathleen’s level of consciousness was 3 of 3, the lowest possible score on the Glasgow Coma Scale. She had no pulse, no respiration, and no blood pressure. #4 The officers saw a chair lift attached to the wall of the stairwell. The seat was folded up, but still they wondered if it played a role in the incident. They also made the assumption that Kathleen was disabled.

Handbook of Bloodstain Pattern Analysis
The Handbook of Bloodstain Pattern Analysis captures the latest understanding of the science that supports bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA) and includes the results of numerous research studies using modern technologies not found in previously published books. It provides the BPA community with a modern, up-to-date reference and training manual to outline and validate the utility, repeatability, and reliability of BPA science. BPA has recently been presented in the news media as an example of “junk” science used in a handful of cases involving wrongful convictions. However, the reality is that the primary issue for BPA in these wrongful convictions is not the science: it is the result o...
Criminal Investigation
This text presents the fundamentals of criminal investigation and provides a sound method for reconstructing a past event (i.e., a crime) based on three major sources of information - people, physical evidence and records. More than a simplistic introductory text, yet written in an easy-to-read, user-friendly format, it offers a broad approach to criminal investigation. Dozens of photographs, graphics, table, charts and diagrams supplement the text. A glossary elaborates on terms found in the text, gathered into one handy reference.
Crime Scene Investigation
Details the emergence of modern crime-fighting techniques, focusing on how crime scenes are investigated, how evidence is processed, and how evidence is used in court to build a case for conviction.
Forensics in Law Enforcement
In recent years forensic DNA evidence has been used by agencies and actors in the criminal justice system more and more frequently to both convict the guilty and exonerate the innocent. Cases that previously may have been unsolveable have been transformed into solvable cases where viable suspects can be identified and arrested or removed from suspect lists. This book presents examinations of how DNA, and some other forensic methods, are being used by our justice system and the issues that surround these uses.
