Includes a supplementary website (www.wileyeurope.com/college/gunn) covering additional material and self-test questions to reinforce student understanding. From the reviews of the first edition: |The author does an excellent job of demonstrating how biological science can, and does, contribute to legal investigations...| —THE QUARTERLY REVIEW OF BIOLOGY |...a super book ...not a book that will languish on library shelves. Buy it!| —JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL EDUCATION |...naturalists and biologists will find much of interest within these books...new light on the application of their own specialism...| —THE NATURALIST |Overall, I give it my highest recommendation. I was unable to find a single paragraph that was no fascinating, despite being sad or gruesome at times.| —E-STREAMS
