About this book
Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:
“The 21 chapters cover the major areas of a forensic laboratory and carry the additional theme of accreditation throughout the text. … This handbook is highly recommended for not only forensic laboratories but also for crime scene investigation units (sworn and civilian), officers, detectives, and police administrators who are responsible for evidence collection and processing. … I would recommend this textbook for consideration in classes involving undergraduate forensic science, criminal investigation, and forensic laboratory management.” (Kenneth B. Zercie, Sr., Journal of Forensic Identification, Vol. 63 (5), September-October, 2013)Editors and Affiliations
