    History of forensics
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2016*

We've come a long way from the days when criminals could get away with murder by claiming blood on their clothes came from animals.  This book takes us through the whole history of forensic science, beginning with the first scientist who found a way to distinguish between human and animal blood, all the way up to DNA analysis.  The science is explained in terms that are easy for the lay reader to understand.  Each new forensic development is illustrated with interesting details about crime cases, mostly murders.  These cases were explained in detail, and were the most interesting parts of the book.  This book provides an excellent introduction to the history of forensics for the reader with a casual interest in crime investigation.

    Kudos  to  the  Pioneers  of  Forensic  Medicine !!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2016*

This  was  a  fascinating  read.  The  author  did  a  remarkable  job,  researching  the  details  and  presenting  each  historic  event  covered.  It  should  be  read  by  every  MD  with  any  interest  in  the  history  of  medicine.  It  exposes  the  evil  intentions  of  many  over  the  centuries,  as  they  chose  these  chemicals  to  destroy  unsuspecting  victims.  Brilliant  scientific  minds  overcame  obstacles  to  bring  justice  to  those  innocent  and  suffering  victims.

    The history of how crimes are solved
  

*by T***M on Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2016*

It is interesting reading about how crimes are solved now and how the discoveries came about. They discoveries are no-brainers now but what is amazing is how hard it was for people who came up with the idea had to work to get their idea accepted! The author introduces a technique, writes about who discovered it, and then writes about a couple of crimes for which the technique proved it's value.
