Statistical methodology plays a key role in ensuring that this evidence is collected, interpreted, analysed and presented correctly. This book is a guide to assessing DNA evidence and presenting that evidence in a courtroom setting. It offers practical guidance to forensic scientists with little dependence on mathematical ability, and provides the scientist with the understanding they require to apply the methods in their work. Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 2005 there have been many incremental changesStatistics in practice.Forensic geneticsStatistical methodsDNA fingerprintingStatistical methodsForensic geneticsStatistical methods.DNA fingerprintingStatistical methods.614.1Balding D.
