Forensic Toxicology Methods
A subset of forensic science, forensic toxicology, is literally, the use of toxicology methods and practices, in the courts of law. This is generally understood to mean the analysis of alcohol, drugs and poisons in body fluids, and the interpretation of these analytical results for the benefit of the courts.
A considerable overlap exists between the fields of forensic toxicology and, clinical toxicology, criminalistics, forensic psychology, environmental toxicology, forensic pathology and pharmacology.Forensic Toxicology Methods is the only book which specifically targets forensic toxicology, and as such provides major coverage of the basic principles, analytical and related methodologies, and substances relevant to forensic practice. Dealing with the problems in the preparation of samples, and including chapters covering practical procedures at both the crime scene and the laboratory, this book is an essential reference for all students and professionals with an interest in forensic toxicology.
