Sommario/riassunto

Forensic Pathology of Child Death Assessment is a concise educational text based on Dr. Mary Case's groundbreaking, in-depth textbook. This assessment is a self-directed evaluation that guides readers through historical and contemporary understandings of the causes, manners, and mechanisms of child death. In total, this text includes over 150 clinical images and more than 30 case studies. The comprehensive assessment section gives readers the opportunity to engage in critical analysis of case studies with detailed diagrams, autopsy reports, and images.
