The field of forensic neuropathology covers such controversial
topics as the effects of repeated brain trauma in football players
and how babies probably cannot die from being shaken. Jan Leestma
is one of the most respected voices in this area. A timely update
to his classic reference, Forensic Neuropathology: Third Edition
presents an encyclopedic exposition of neuropathological conditions
that may have forensic import. Reflecting the latest research, this
edition includes expanded sections on multiple trauma, one
punch/one hit arterial injuries, and the physiology of respiratory
control. It presents new perspectives and rules regarding expert
testimony and evidence admissibility occasioned by Daubert and
related Supreme Court cases. The book explores how these rulings
affect forensic pathologists, neuropathologists, and other
potential experts as well as how they interact with the legal
system. Several chapters examine the mechanisms and pathophysiology
of neuropathological conditions and discuss the biomechanical basis
for neurological injury. Where possible, aging and dating
methodology is included for various processes. More than 325
updated full-color illustrations complement the text along with
diagrams, tables, and figures that illustrate the textual material
and can be useful as exhibits in court. An extensive bibliography
provides background information and facilitates further research.
