Principles of Forensic Pathology: From Investigation to Certification

By Susan F Ely and James R. Gill

Principles of Forensic Pathology: From Investigation to Certification offers a consistent and conceptual framework and approach to forensic practice and evidence-based thinking that leads to mechanism-based opinions. The book uses a systematic casework approach to address, explain and guide the reader through diverse topics encountered by forensic pathologists. Chapters provide a comprehensive overview of the field of forensic pathology, discussing topics such as scene investigation, pathophysiology of death, autopsy, types of circumstances, and deaths. Scenarios encountered include both frequent and less frequent situations, offering mental checklists and prescriptions for the consistent approach to such cases.

Written by forensic professionals, this book is a practical, yet comprehensive compendium for forensic pathology fellows, pathology residents and medical students interested in forensic pathology.
