    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Forensic Biology, Third Edition, provides students with a general understanding of forensic biology, particularly in forensic serology and forensic DNA analysis, and addresses rapid advancements in the field over the past few years.



    The book is divided into 26 chapters that are designed to be covered in a single-semester course for students majoring in forensic science, with the aim of equipping students with the knowledge needed to understand and apply new real-world techniques and methods to prepare them for entry into the field.



    The third edition:




    • Provides clear explanations of the principles involved in forensic identification and the analysis of biological evidence



    • Explains the techniques used in forensic body fluid identification and DNA profiling, both in the field and in the laboratory



    • Discusses the benefits and limitations of various forensic biology techniques



    • Includes over four hundred color illustrations



    • Includes over three thousand in-text citations



    This updated and comprehensive volume on forensic biology is suitable for use both in the classroom and as a reference for practicing professionals.
