Pollak S: Knight's Forensic Pathology

Knight's Forensic Pathology

Improved usage of forensic science evidence by legal practitioners is essential to reduce miscarriages of justice. This book presents critical insights into contemporary issues of forensic proof from a broad perspective. Using DNA and fingerprint evidence, the authors compare and contrast the science of forensics and how it is communicated to judges, juries, and counsel. With authors from Australia, the UK, and the U.S., the book also addresses how these different countries address science in the courtroom. This resource is ideal for all those who work in forensic capacities, including those scientists who increasingly are called to testify abroad.

The Roadmap of Research: A Guide to Understanding and Writing a Medical Study helps readers easily grasp the context, methodologies, findings, and implications of research studies, build on previous work, avoid redundancies, and identify areas where new studies can contribute significantly. The book enables researchers to innovate, propose new ideas, and design studies that contribute novel perspectives or methodologies to the field. Each step in this roadmap plays a pivotal role in the research process, from building a foundation of knowledge through reading and understanding, to generating new ideas through critical thinking, and finally, disseminating findings through clear and effective writing.

The Roadmap of Research

The first major publication on mass fatality management when it was published in 1999, the new edition of this bestseller is greatly revised and expanded. Eight new chapters include such topics as international resources, multi-national events, data management, identification management, repatriation, mass burial, and management of contaminated human remains. This revision is based on world events of the past 15 years, many of which the author managed. It includes expanded information on morgue operations, reflects increasing sensitivity to cultural differences, and provides the latest direction for handling the media.

Personhood, in liberal philosophical and legal traditions, has long been grounded in the idea of autonomy and the right to legal capacity. However, in this book, Julia Duffy questions these assumptions and shows how such beliefs exclude and undermine the rights of adults with cognitive disability. Instead, she reinterprets the right to legal capacity through the principle of the interdependence and indivisibility of human rights. In doing so, she compellingly argues that dignity and not autonomy ought to be the basis of personhood. Using illustrative case studies, Duffy demonstrates that the key human rights values of autonomy, dignity and equality can only be achieved by fulfilling a range of interdependent human rights. With this innovative book challenging common assumptions about human rights and personhood, Duffy leads the way in ensuring civil, economic, political, social, and cultural inclusion for adults with cognitive disabilities.

This book critiques human rights standards that relate to abortion at the international and regional human rights level, from the EU, UN, Inter-American and African System. It tracks the convergence and divergence, cutting across jurisdictions, to make globally applicable recommendations. It underlines the significance of human rights in making transformative progress on abortion rights. A topical, timely and compelling work.

Bodies of Evidence disrupts popular understandings of the rape kit by examining it as a complex assemblage of practices and protocols that stands at the uneasy nexus of law and medicine. Jaimie Morse traces how this assemblage was championed as a rights project in medicine, moving from the margins to the center of health care responses to sexual violence through new clinical standards of care, first in the United States and then in global humanitarian medicine. Drawing on archival research, interviews with experts and activists, and fieldwork at international meetings, the book chronicles a novel process of legal mobilization in medicine and interrogates the existential meanings and stakes of rape kits, their associated practices, and their underlying assumptions and expectations for survivors of sexual violence.

Burdened with perennially rising costs and responsible for providing health insurance to more than one sixth of all Americans, Medicare in its original form is fiscally and demographically unsustainable. In light of dramatic reforms under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), this book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of Medicare. Eleanor D. Kinney explains how the ACA addresses systemic problems of cost and volume inflation, quality assurance, and fraud. Recognizing the potential for more radical change in the future, Kinney also explores the potential of Medicare to become a single-payer system. Comparisons are made with national health systems in Canada and the United Kingdom, from which the United States can draw valuable lessons. An approachable yet comprehensive account of Medicare and the ACA, this book will be invaluable for health care professionals and informed citizens.

This book focuses on the controversial aggressive police practices employed to control crime by the New York City Police Department (NYPD) and the harm that has resulted and may further be produced if not checked. Informed by the author's personal experience with the department as a retired NYPD Captain, as well as by his research in the field, this book explains and reviews the broad influence of stop and frisk as well as other aggressive policies.Many policies agencies across the United States - and even throughout the world - take heed of NYPD tactics due to the organization's status as a flagship police department. In the mid-1990s, with the election of Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a new era of aggressive policing began. While apparently helping lead to a decline in crime, the side effects of tactics such as stop and frisk also led to powerful repercussions. A new Inspector General was installed, the department was placed under review by a federal monitor examining its racist and unconstitutional stops, and officers were compelled by City Council to record nearly every interaction with citizens. Names of individuals affected by these aggressive tactics, including Amadou Diallo, Eric Garner, and Abner Louima, among others, remain in the public consciousness. These tactics adopted by the NYPD, at least in part, fueled social justice movements such as Black Lives Matter. The many years of stop and frisk erodes public trust in the police with many activists and policymakers calling for increased scrutiny of police power, reduced police budgets, and even for the abolishment of police.Designed both for students in criminal justice programs as well as recruits in police training, this book explains and critiques the state of stop and frisk and related tactics and recommends paths to a better future.

This book outlines the role of expert testimony in a trial, including explanations of methods, testing, and science, the legal process, and an overview of the roles of each player. In this, it details the expert witness's role in promoting effective, impactful courtroom testimony.Succeeding as an expert witness requires a basic understanding of who and what experts are and what role they play in rendering their opinions within the courts. The new edition has been fully updated to present key information on the most vital functions the expert plays. This includes the deposition, a discussion of the dangers of false or unsupported testimony, adherence to scientific principles, and the direct and cross-examination testimony of expert witnesses. Each chapter includes key terms, review questions, and thought-provoking discussion questions for further consideration of the topics addressed. Given many recent high-profile cases and increasing incidents of misconduct, this edition focuses heavily on the role of ethics in expert testimony and forensic practice. Outlining established trial-tested tips, forensic scientist Max M. Houck and attorney Christine Funk update renowned lawyer Harold A. Feder's classic book.This is an essential reference for forensic science students entering the work force-in labs and investigative positions-in addition to serving as a crucial resource for more experienced civil, private, and testifying experts in all disciplines.
