Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Gait analysis is the systematic study of human walking, using the
eye and brain of experienced observers, augmented by
instrumentation for measuring body movements, body mechanics, and
the activity of the muscles. Since Aristotle's work on gait
analysis more than 2000 years ago, it has become an established
clinical science used extensively in the healthcare and
rehabilitation fields for diagnosis and treatment. Forensic Gait
Analysis details the more recent, and rapidly developing, use of
gait analysis in the forensic sciences. The book considers the use
of observational gait analysis, based on video recordings, to
assist in the process of identification or exclusion. With the
increase in use of CCTV and surveillance systems over the last 20
to 30 years, there has been a steady and rapid increase in the use
of gait as evidence. Currently, gait analysis is widely used in the
UK in criminal investigations, with increasing awareness of its
potential use in the US, Europe, and globally. The book details the
history of the science, current practices, and of the emergent
application to establish best-practice standards that conform to
those of other forensic science disciplines. Engagement with the
Forensic Science Regulator, and the Chartered Society of Forensic
Sciences in the UK, and the International Association for
Identification has helped to ensure and enhance the quality
assurance of forensic gait analysis. However, there remains a
fundamental lack of standardized training and methodology for use
in evidentiary and investigative casework. This book fills that
void, serving as one of the first to describe the current state of
practice, capabilities and limitations, and to outline methods,
standards of practice and expectations of the gait analyst as a
forensic practitioner. Forensic Gait Analysis reflects current
research and forensic practice and will serve as a state-of-the-art
guide to the use of gait analysis in the forensic context-for both
education and training purposes. It will be a welcome addition to
the libraries of professionals in the areas of podiatry, gait
analysis, forensic video analysis, law enforcement, and legal
practice.
