THE CASEBOOK OF FORENSIC DETECTION
Evans, Colin
John Wiley & Sons (October 1996)

This is a popular reference title to appeal to everyone who loves good mysteries, police procedures, true crime stories, courtroom dramas, and scientific who-done-its. Brought together for the first time are all the great milestone cases that have measured the progress of "scientific detection"--in the broadest Sherlockian sense of the term--from the mid-19th Century to the present. Written in a fast-paced style, THE CASEBOOK recounts 150 precedent-setting cases in which science solved the crime and brought a villain to justice. Each engrossing case is described in detail and the scientific techniques used to solve it clearly explained. Reading these cases, organized chronologically by technique, we discover how each of these forensic tools developed and eventually won acceptance by judges and juries. Colin Evans is a true crime author who lives in Florida.
