Description
By: Katherine Ramsland
First time in paperback essential reading for the millions of fans of CSI and Cold Case Files.
Katherine Ramsland, a renowned expert in criminology, traces the story of the evolution of forensic science from thirteenth-century Chinese studies of decomposition through the flowering of science during the Renaissance and its veritable explosion during the era of Newtonian physics, to the marvels of the present day and beyond. Along the way, she introduces readers to such forensic pioneers as the father of toxicology; the criminal turned-detective who founded the Parisian Sureté; and trailblazers like William Bass whose integrated program in entomology, anthropology, and pathology at the Forensic Anthropology Center has galvanized the field.
