About the Book

A collection of cutting-edge reviews of many of the key recent medical and legal advances in forensic science. These critical surveys concentrate on common pathological entities likely to be encountered in daily forensic routine, as well as on specific pathological conditions rarely seen in the autopsy room. Complementing rather than replacing the classic textbooks in forensic pathology, the authors explore new avenues for analyzing the pathology of burned bodies, traumatic brain injury, death by drug abuse, sudden cardiac death, sudden infant death and neonaticide, and fatalities resulting from kicking and trampling. Other areas of interest include accidental autoerotic deaths, hypothermia fatalities, injuries from resuscitation procedures, the interpretation of alcohol levels in different specimens, and the potential forensic differential diagnoses and interpretation of iliopsoas muscle hemorrhage in the light of autopsy.

Review :
"...the readers of this book will establish up-to-date and good grasp of forensic pathology...the book can be recommended to forensic pathologists from beginners to experts. The book will give good basis for further forensic practices and researches." -Legal Medicine "It is hoped that the following volume of this series will maintain the high standard set up by this first volume." -International Journal of Legal Medicine "I would recommend the first book in this series to the practicing forensic pathologist who wishes to fill in some gaps of the standard forensic pathology texts or as a starting point to begin to master the art of traumatic forensic neuroimmunohistochemistry." -Arch Pathol Lab Med "Cutting edge and concise, the book offers forensic investigators a demonstration of the latest advances in forensic pathology." - Clinical Laboratory International "...a wonderful book on forensic pathology and a must-have for forensic pathologists...a nice addition to every forensic pathologist's library. " - Doody's Health Science Book Review Journal "...a most welcome book and is essential reading, not only for forensic pathologists, but for all pathologists who carry out coroner's work." - ACP News
