"With the current proliferation of CSI-type television programs and the heightened interest in forensic matters exhibited by all age groups, Ron Fridell has authored a hip introduction entitled Forensic Science as a contribution to the 10-part Cool Science series. In simple elementary school-level narrative, Fridell explains how forensic scientists use principles and techniques of science to solve crimes. The text is appropriately supplemented by numerous graphics and vivid color photographs. Real forensic news cases, such as the Okalahoma City bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in 1995, are highlighted. Forensic techniques such as facial reconstruction are introduced, and the specialized roles of forensic anthropologist, dentist, entomologist, and medical examiner are discussed. A short science glossary and a selected bibliography for additional reading are included." --Science Books & Films
Describes the kinds of trace evidence forensic scientists can use to track down and identify criminals and how such evidence is collected and analyzed, and offers examples of cases in which forensic science was used.
