Review # 1 was written on 2012-04-27 00:00:00 Alicia Erickson I took a course in Forensics from Coursera recently and this was one of the suggested "textbooks." I'm REALLY glad that I got it because not only does it nicely complement the course, but it's a great learning experience on its own. It can be read as a book rather than a textbook - in fact, I think the chapter summaries and the Questions at the end of each chapter are not at all good - but the information contained in the chapters is clear and very understandable, even when they are somewhat complicated scientific ideas. So, if you have the time and the discipline to read a textbook like a "real" book and you're into forensics, check it out. You can get this and earlier editions online for a reasonable price (or I wouldn't have ordered it!!!!).

Review # 2 was written on 2011-11-21 00:00:00 Marcelina White Even though this book was required reading for my Forensic Science class, I found it absolutely fascinating. I had no idea how in depth the Crime Scene Unit investigators get when it comes to collecting data, transporting that data and then passing it off to the forensic scientist for analyzing. The crimes that have been solved through the talents of individuals who perform forensic science on a daily basis is amazing to me. I realize this book is considered a "textbook", but if you ever want to find out what law enforcement has to go through to solve a crime, I think you might find this an interesting read.
