Short description:

The field of forensic pathology has progressed from its roots in antiquity, with the first documented medicolegal autopsy being performed on Julius Caesar following his murder, to modern day, where it includes molecular autopsy and post-mortem imaging. This evolving field of medicine excites the imaginations of the public, media and physicians. This book provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review of this field and contributes to areas that are largely ignored by forensic pathology textbooks.  These topics include: death investigation bioethics, principles of courtroom testimony, and the negative medicolegal autopsy.



Forensic Pathology serves as a very useful guide for practicing pathologists, trainees, forensic nurses, and clinicians, as well as lawyers, judges and police with an interest in forensic pathology. This book functions as a concise and comprehensive summary of the current status of the field of forensic pathology.
