The Age of Forensics
29.99 €
This book, based on true facts and examples of the most notorious and mysterious criminal cases of the past, describes the history of the emergence and development of forensic science. Its heroes were police officers and doctors, chemists and private investigators, psychiatrists and even writers - all who contributed to the scientific methods of finding criminals.
Why was fingerprinting, without which no police investigation is possible nowadays, considered a pseudoscience for so long? Who invented the system of police photography? Which of the classical writers played an important role in the fight against crime? How far has forensic science come in 100 years? These are just a few of the questions answered by Jürgen Thorwald's fascinating "A Century of Forensic Science"! The edition also includes chapters on serology and forensic chemistry and biology, which have never been published in Russian before!
