Provides examples, to laboratories and lab personnel, on how to
report the results of forensic biology examinations given activity
level propositions, along with example reports and standard
operating procedures Presents worked case examples, based on real
crimes, showing how the theory of activity level evaluation can be
applied in practice Illustrates how the theory of activity level
evaluation, explained specifically for forensic genetic cases, can
likewise be applied to other forensic disciplines Explains concepts
in simple terms, making it ideal for law or science students
wishing to understand the fundamental of forensic evidence
evaluation

Now in its second edition, Forensic DNA Evidence Interpretation is
the most comprehensive resource for DNA casework available today.
Written by leaders in the fields of biology and statistics,
including a contribution from Peter Gill, the father of DNA
analysis, the book emphasizes the interpretation of test results
and provides the necessary formulae in an easily accessible manner.
This latest edition is fully updated and includes current and
emerging techniques in this fast-moving field. The book begins by
reviewing all pertinent biology, and then provides information on
every aspect of DNA analysis. This includes modern interpretation
methods and contemporary population genetic models available for
estimating DNA frequencies or likelihood ratios. Following a
chapter on procedures for validating databases, the text presents
overviews and performance assessments of both modern sampling
uncertainty methods and current paternity testing techniques,
including new guidelines on paternity testing in alignment with the
International Society for Forensic Genetics. Later chapters discuss
the latest methods for mixture analysis, LCN (ultra trace) analysis
and non-autosomal (mito, X, and Y) DNA analysis. The text concludes
with an overview of procedures for disaster victim identification
and information on DNA intelligence databases. Highlights of the
second edition include: New information about PCR processes,
heterozygote balance and back and forward stuttering New
information on the interpretation of low template DNA, drop models
and continuous models Additional coverage of lineage marker
subpopulation effects, mixtures and combinations with autosomal
markers This authoritative book provides a link among the
biological, forensic, and interpretative domains of the DNA
profiling field. It continues to serve as an invaluable resource
that allows forensic scientists, technicians, molecular biologists
and attorneys to use forensic DNA evidence to its greatest
potential.
Menu from the Midi explores French gastronomy from the farmer's
field to the dining room table. Concentrating on the South of
France, the book is structured as a menu carefully compiled to give
the reader a balanced diet of gastronomy, history, legend and local
colour. Uniquely, it adds into this mix a celebration of the
dedicated and passionate people who produce some of the finest raw
ingredients and foodstuffs you are ever likely to taste.
Appreciating good food and wine needs the right ambiance, the right
company and plenty of time. Sit back, relax and savour the oldest
sparkling wine in the world, le Rolls-Royce of olives, pink garlic
soup, meats of the black Gascon pig, the legendary cassoulet,
cheese from the caves of Roquefort, and learn how the Midi's ornate
pigeon towers ensured a constant supply of roast pigeon. No wonder
the father of food journalism and gastronomic guides, Grimod de La
Reyniere, had this to say 200 years ago: 'In good towns of the
Midi, a great dinner is an affair of state. One speaks of it three
months beforehand and digesting it lasts six weeks.'
A journey through the past and present of a little-known area of
south-west France. Explores the people, places and events that
shaped a land once too important to ignore. A whole library has
been written about the Lauragais in French, but virtually nothing
in English. The Lauragais lies in south-west France at the heart of
Occitania. Today it is largely ignored by the millions who visit
its neighbours each year - Toulouse and Carcassonne - but in times
gone by it rarely escaped the attentions of the great and the good,
or the ambitious and the avaricious. This is a book with big
characters - Simon de Montfort, the Black Prince, Thomas Jefferson
and the Duke of Wellington among others - but most of all it tells
the story of the people who have shaped this land, the living and
the dead, families that have lived in the same house or village for
hundreds of years. This is the story of their lives, their
religion, their forgotten language and their environment. On the
autoroute, a journey through the Lauragais will take you
three-quarters of an hour, but all you will see are tantalising
glimpses of gorgeous countryside and distant signs of human
habitation. In this book, the author takes you on a more leisurely
trip through time in a land that is endearingly modest about its
illustrious past.
