"Pepper strikes a number of goals in one text simultaneously. It is
a fine tool to assist CSI practitioners with their day-to-day
duties; it is also a guide for career development and, in the
comprehensive table of relevant statutes, Pepper provides commonly
used abbreviations and academic references, all of which establish
the book as a solid launch pad for further reading." Timothy G.
ShilstonChief Superintendent, Northumbria Police, UKForensic

professional development that is invaluable to any new or aspiring
CSI.Crime Scene Investigation is essential reading for all students

enforcement, particularly those wishing to become Crime Scene
Investigators. It is also a handy reference for trainee and
professional forensic practitioners.
This delightful book is the first comprehensive guide to all extant
buildings of the great German architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel.
With detailed descriptions and color illustrations, it takes the
reader from Aachen through Potsdam and Berlin to St. Petersburg. On
the occasion of his 225th birthday on March 13, 2006, the compact
guide on the work of this universally talented architect was
published in German. Now it is available in English, detailing
almost 150 remaining buildings, ranging from churches and palaces
to museums, technical buildings and monuments. Schinkel's buildings
are spread from the Rhineland to Russia, with a particular focus on
Berlin and Potsdam, where Schinkel created his most famous
buildings, such as the Altes Museum, the buildings on Peacock
Island or the Nikolaikirche in Potsdam.
