One of the greatest challenges encountered by those in the forensic
sciences is anticipating what the state and federal courts will -
"or will not "- allow as valid physical evidence. With this in
mind, the author of Forensic Evidence: Science and the Criminal
Law, Second Edition analyzes and explains the judicial system's
response to the applicability of forensic science in the
investigation, prosecution, and defense of criminal activity.
Each chapter of this comprehensive yet accessible resource
provides an overview and analysis of the scientific and legal
aspects of a particular forensic discipline. An important new
feature of this second edition is that each chapter focuses on
discussions of recent forensics literature reviews from Interpol's
14th Annual Forensic Science Symposium. This latest edition also
updates previously discussed cases and presents the most recent
applications of the Frye and Daubert standards, the admissibility
of eyewitnessidentification, the upsurge of cases and statutes that
involve post-conviction DNA, and the increased interest in
re-examining cold cases.
As challenges to forensic evidence become increasingly rigorous,
so does the need for intense preparation. Forensic Evidence:
Science and the Criminal Law, Second Edition is "the" book that
those in the forensic sciences need to have on hand to successfully
prepare for what may await them in the courtroom.
