In his forty-year career, Michael Baden has conducted more than
20,000 autopsies. Considered one of the world's leading
pathologists, he was New York City medical examiner from 1960 to
1985 and is now co-director of the New York State Police
Medicolegal Investigation Unit. The host of the popular program
Autopsy on HBO, Dr. Baden brings riveting stories and expert
analysis to Dead Reckoning.
Along with award-winning writer Marion Roach, Dr. Baden, takes
readers on a you-are-there tour of the morgue to demonstrate how
the advances in forensic science are helping to solve crimes as
never before. They visit cases, both famous and ordinary, to
explain why the first hour at a crime scene is crucial. Readers are
also invited to be present at the analysis of soil samples, plant
matter, insects, blood spatters, bone, teeth, hair, weather, and
other crime scene evidence to witness how they can improve the
chances of a just verdict.
What Sherwin Nuland did for the science of death, Dr. Baden and
Dead Reckoning does for the science of forensic pathology, offering
what Tracy Kidder calls a "fascinating window into the world of the
medical detective."
