Pathology of Neck Injury, Second Edition is a practical guide and reference to all pathological aspects of neck injury. It covers a broad spectrum of trauma to the neck region, reflecting the experiences of many distinguished pathologists and those of author, Peter Vanezis, who has more than 50 years of expertise in the field. This highly illustrated text begins by explaining the anatomy of the neck region as it relates to trauma investigation and the various techniques required for its examination. Coverage goes on to describe penetrating injuries, comprising mainly sharp force trauma and firearm injuries. Asphyxial and related deaths are subsequently discussed in a series of chapters, before the focus turns to the examination of blunt impact, non¿compressive injuries. Here special reference is made to their common occurrence in road traffic accidents. Finally, this book concludes with environmental, toxic, and iatrogenic causes of injury. Where appropriate, and especially with regard to penetrating and compressive modes of trauma, the interpretation of injuries and their differentiation into various categories such as homicide, suicide, or accident has been addressed. Pathology of Neck Injury, Second Edition is an essential guide for all those involved in the relevant specialties of pathology, surgery, and forensic medicine - particularly pathologists, both qualified and in training, but also to clinical forensic practitioners, trauma specialists, ENT surgeons, and general surgeons.

Pathology of Neck Injury

Human olfaction - the sense of smell - enables us to appreciate food and drink, it warns us of dangers and it makes our environments more enjoyable. However, olfaction is one of our least explored sensory systems. Until now.

The New Science of Smell

The Forgotten Sense

A popular companion for James/Nordby's Forensic Science textbook, this laboratory manual provides a plethora of basic, hands on experiments that can be completed with inexpensive and accessible instrumentation, making this the ideal workbook for science and non-science majors. It includes exercises on tire tread impression evidence, reconstruction of shooting and vehicle incidents, elimination of exercises no longer useful in the modern lab, classification of exercises as A, B, and C to designate the level of difficulty, and a CD offering useful forms and images in color.

Forensic Science Laboratory Manual and Workbook, Fourth Edition

'I love puzzles, and finding answers is the only truly enjoyable part of what I do.'This is because Professor Patricia Wiltshire is a forensic ecologist, her days spent at crime scenes collecting samples, standing over dead bodies in a mortuary, or looking down her microscope for evidence. Nature has given us a messy, imperfect world, but her job is to help make sense of it when we need it to most. A pioneer of forensic ecology - using the natural world to help solve crimes - Patricia has been involved in some of the most high-profile murder cases. Not only does she help the police solve crimes and give answers to the most bemusing circumstances, she can help to exonerate the innocent and enable confessions from the guilty. Working at the interface of where the criminal and natural world interact, Patricia will show us how she finds the answers to some of the worst crimes imaginable.Through a study of her most infamous cases, we join Patricia in putting the puzzle together, teasing the evidence out of her cases - 'a garden came out of his hair' - and showing us all how life and death have always been, and always will be, intertwined. But how do you find justice for a mother who has lost her daughter in the most horrific of circumstances? How does she face the very worst of humanity's crimes, and the weight of responsibility to the victims and those they leave behind?

Dr Duncan Harding is the person the police and the courts turn to for answers. An expert witness, he must try to establish a defendant's mental state and motivation. And their fitness to stand trial. Growing up in a broken, violent home, Harding became a doctor because he wanted to be good and kind.

But he's never turned away nor given up hope. Mesmerising, insightful and redemptive, The Criminal Mind is his unforgettable story. 'Not just another forensic psychiatrist's casebook. . . . a moving account of how Harding became a child and adolescent forensic psychiatrist, caring for mentally disordered child and adolescent offenders' KEITH RIX professor of medical jurisprudence and forensic psychiatrist

It aids doctors in all disciplines to become proactive in managed care, expert testimony, and medical malpractice. Citing case law both in the US and abroad gives the book global appeal.

A profound and provocative journey through the human body 'Bold, humane yet unsettling' GUARDIAN 'Gripping and lyrical' TELEGRAPH For Gabriel Weston, there was always something missing from the anatomy she was taught at medical school. As she became a surgeon, a mother, and ultimately a patient herself, she found herself grappling with the gap between the body she understood as a doctor, and the reality of living in one. In this captivating exploration of our bodily organs, a fuller and more human picture of our bodies emerges: more fragile, frightening and miraculous than we could have imagined. 'Exceptional, beautiful and absolutely absorbing . . . ALIVE is essential reading if you own a body' CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN
