objectives. 330 8 $aThis text aims to provide a broad, scientifically rigorous introduction to forensic science. It covers processes from the crime scene to presentation of forensic science in court and focuses on the chemical, biological and physical methods used in forensic examination.$bThis book is the perfect starting point for any newcomer to the field of forensic science. It examines the entire process of conducting forensic science, from the collection of evidence at the crime scene, through the examination of that evidence, to the presentation of scientific findings in court. The book is scientifically rigorous but written in a friendly and engaging style making it the ideal companion for undergraduate students beginning a forensic science course; as background for MSc students; as a reference for related professions such as lawyers or police officers; or simply for the casual reader who wants to learn more about this fascinating area. 606 $aForensic sciences 606 $aCriminal investigation 606 $aForensic sciences$zGreat Britain 606 $aCriminal investigation$zGreat Britain 606 $aForensic sciences$zGreat Britain 606 $aCriminal investigation$zGreat Britain 606 $aSocial Welfare & Social Work$2HILCC 606 $aSocial Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aCriminology, Penology & Juvenile Delinquency$2HILCC 608 $aElectronic books.$2lcsh 615 0$aForensic sciences. 615 0$aCriminal investigation. 615 0$aForensic sciences 615 0$aCriminal investigation 615 0$aForensic sciences 615 0$aCriminal investigation 615 7$aSocial Welfare & Social Work 615 7$aSocial Sciences 615 7$aCriminology, Penology & Juvenile Delinquency 676 $a363.25 700 $aJackson$b Andrew R.
