"Introduction to Statistics for Forensic Scientists" is an
essential introduction to the subject, gently guiding the reader
through the key statistical techniques used to evaluate various
types of forensic evidence. Assuming only a modest mathematical
background, the book uses real-life examples from the forensic
science literature and forensic case-work to illustrate relevant
statistical concepts and methods. Opening with a brief overview of
the history and use of statistics within forensic science, the text
then goes on to introduce statistical techniques commonly used to
examine data obtained during laboratory experiments. There is a
strong emphasis on the evaluation of scientific observation as
evidence and modern Bayesian approaches to interpreting forensic
data for the courts. The analysis of key forms of evidence are
discussed throughout with a particular focus on DNA, fibres and
glass.An invaluable introduction to the statistical interpretation
of forensic evidence, this book will be invaluable for all
undergraduates taking courses in forensic science. It includes an
introduction to the key statistical techniques used in the
evaluation of forensic evidence. It also includes end of chapter
exercises to enhance student understanding. Numerous examples are
taken from forensic science to put the subject into context.
