About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The major attraction of this book is its coverage of a wide diversity of subjects related to forensic entomology. This field deals with the use of insects and other arthropods in medicolegal investigations. … The work provides detailed information regarding the role of beetles and mites in determining PMI. … The topics covered in this reference are most suitable for active practitioners and researchers in forensic entomology. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate through professional collections.” (R. Saferstein, Choice, Vol. 48 (2), October, 2010)
“It is a multidisciplinary view of forensic entomology, primarily aimed at young scientists and lay readers. … As is the case for most multidisciplinary projects, the chapters of this book were written by different authors. … As expected, the different chapters meet the expectations of readers in different ways. … this book is a good, comprehensive acquisition for the general reader.” (E. G. P. Fox, European Journal of Entomology, Vol. 108, 2011)
