A visual guide to how forensics and forensic science works - using the cases of famous serial and mass murderers How do you catch a maniac or serial killer? Any investigation of such a case is a complex combination of different forensic sciences such as toxicology, fingerprinting, forensic ballistics, forensic science, profiling or DNA analysis. To get on the killer's trail, detectives have learned to interpret vital evidence written in the language of fingerprints, tiny scales of skin, dental impressions, bone fragments, blood and paint stains, chemical traces, or bullet trajectories. In this book, research scientist, author of articles and books on forensics and forensic science Brian Innes has collected the most interesting cases, demonstrating the diversity and complexity of methods of catching especially dangerous criminals, as well as tells the history of the origin and development of various branches of forensic science. Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Richard Ramirez (Night Hunter), Lee Harvey Oswald, Albert DeSalvo (Boston Strangler), Ted Kaczynski (Unabomber), and many other serial killers are examined in this book in terms of their capture tactics. The text is illustrated with more than 200 unique photographs from investigative cases, many of which are shown for the first time.
