The increasingly arcane world of DNA profiling demands that those
needing to understand at least some of it must find a source of
reliable and understandable information. Combining material from
the successful Wiley Encyclopedia of Forensic Science with newly
commissioned and updated material, the Editors have used their own
extensive experience in criminal casework across the world to
compile an informative guide that will provide knowledge and
thought-provoking articles of interest to anyone involved or
interested in the use of DNA in the forensic context. Following
extensive introductory chapters covering forensic DNA profiling and
forensic genetics, this comprehensive volume presents a substantial
breadth of material covering: * Fundamental material including
sources of DNA, validation, and accreditation * Analysis and
interpretation including, extraction, quantification, amplification
and interpretation of electropherograms (epgs) * Evaluation
including mixtures, low template, and transfer * Applications
databases, paternity and kinship, mitochondrial-DNA, wildlife DNA,
single-nucleotide polymorphism, phenotyping and familial searching
* Court - report writing, discovery, cross examination, and current
controversies With contributions from leading experts across the
whole gamut of forensic science, this volume is intended to be
authoritative but not authoritarian, informative but
comprehensible, and comprehensive but concise. It will prove to be
a valuable addition, and useful resource, for scientists, lawyers,
teachers, criminologists, and judges.
