More Info:
Criminal investigators have learned how to interpret vital testimony that is written in the language of fingerprints and flakes of skin, gradients of teeth and bone, splashes of blood, flecks of paint, traces of chemicals, a splinter of glass, or a uniquely striated bullet. Bodies of Evidence includes various cases from around the world, including O.J. Simpson, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, "The Mad Bomber"George Metesky, Tommie Lee Andrews, "The Night Stalker" Richard Ramirez, Jack Unterweger, Lee Harvey Oswald, "The Boston Strangler" Albert DeSalvo, Jeffrey MacDonald, the Lockerbie bombing, "The Unabomber" Theodore Kaczynski, and many more. The book also chronicles and evaluates the role of those who have made the most significant contributions in the varied fields of toxicology, serology, fingerprinting, facial reconstruction, forensic ballistics, psychological profiling, and DNA fingerprinting. The text is illustrated throughout with 200 photographs, some of which have rarely been seen before.back to top
