Principles of Bloodstain Pattern Analysis: Theory and Practice (Practical Aspects of Criminal & Forensic Investigations)
This is one of the finest forensic science books I have ever read. Several factors make this a remarkably superb and valuable work: The depth of presentation, the amazing number of high quality images and illustrations which actually appear on the same page as the descriptive text, the uncommonly clear writing, and the widely rangingtopics going beyond the basic subject into such relevant and useful areas as the legal aspects of bloodstain pattern analysis. This book is more of a reference encyclopedia on the subject than the title suggests.As a professional crime scene analyst and bloodstain pattern analyst, I have read and perused many of the books on this subject. This book is far and away superior in content and form to any of the others. The authors are well known and respected in the forensic science communityand their knowledge and experience further enhances the book's value.For the record: I paid retail for this book and I wasn't asked toreview it. I just think it is a great work.Alex Jason, SCSA, CFPH…this is probably the finest forensic science book I have ever seen. I was stunned by the number of superb images and the depth of coverage. Ron Wright's chapter is excellent and-U believe-nothing like it is found in any other BSA book. This is one great work…-Alex Jason, SCSA, CFPH
