Matching DNA samples from crime scenes and suspects is rapidly
becoming a key source of evidence for use in our justice system.
DNA Technology in Forensic Science offers recommendations for
resolving crucial questions that are emerging as DNA typing becomes
more widespread. The volume addresses key issues: Quality and
reliability in DNA typing, including the introduction of new
technologies, problems of standardization, and approaches to
certification. DNA typing in the courtroom, including issues of
population genetics, levels of understanding among judges and
juries, and admissibility. Societal issues, such as privacy of DNA
data, storage of samples and data, and the rights of defendants to
quality testing technology. Combining this original volume with the
new update-The Evaluation of Forensic DNA Evidence-provides the
complete, up-to-date picture of this highly important and visible
topic. This volume offers important guidance to anyone working with
this emerging law enforcement tool: policymakers, specialists in
criminal law, forensic scientists, geneticists, researchers,
faculty, and students. Table of Contents FRONT MATTER SUMMARY 1
