After 9/11, forensic epidemiology emerged as a leading
investigative tool, partnering public health officers with law
enforcement like never before. Based on the authors' first-hand
experience, Forensic Epidemiology brings to light the vast amounts
of information collected by medical examiners that will be useful
in advancing death investigation techniques among the forensic
science, public health, and law enforcement fields. This practical
resource begins with a brief overview of epidemiological science
and the history of forensic epidemiology before examining the
multiple functions of death certificates and the signature role of
forensic epidemiologists in death investigations. Incorporating
numerous illustrations and real-world examples, the book: Explains
proven methods to collect, analyze, and interpret data for criminal
investigations Defines the terminology, methodology, procedures,
and goals of all sectors involved for more effective collaboration
Examines deaths from natural, suicidal, accidental, homicidal, and
undetermined causes Describes the various decomposition states and
methods used to establish positive identity The increased frequency
of criminal acts that involve deliberate biological and chemical
agents underscores the need for collaboration between law
enforcement investigators and public health professionals. As
Forensic Epidemiology effectively demonstrates, when they work
together, they can mount a powerful and successful response to
threats to the American public. Dr. Steven A. Koehler was
interviewed in Volume 12 of Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of
Forensic Medicine and Toxicology.
