Overall a good basic reference for Forensics. I found some errors (or what I thought of as errors), but still appreciated the effort this book took to get things right.

A comprehensive overview of the many different aspects of forensics and criminal investigation. If you like Forensic Files as much as I do, you will find this book utterly fascinating!
