Safariland Forensic Science: The Basics by Jay A. Siegel

This book explains all aspects of crime scene investigation, moving from basic areas of criminalistics and beyond to pathology, anthropology and engineering. It also explores new and emerging areas such as forensic entomology. With no previous knowledge of either science or law required, information is self-contained and conveyed at the lowest possible non-scientific level, making this text suitable for both lower level academic adoptions as well as for a general audience. This forensic primer works well in conjunction with current CRC laboratory manuals.
