Valentine Carla: The Language of Bones /
LF

The Language of Bones

A forensics team investigates the murder of a child and is drawn into a chilling international coverupThe body of a young boy is found floating in a city river with pollen in his lungs from a warm river valley far from the country where he died. Who is he? Why was he carrying only a library card and decorative clay bottle? How is it that he came so far, only to meet with a violent fate?A biological anthropologist and her husband, the forensic team’s translator, are tasked by their agency to gather evidence from the far away country and deliver an explanation—preferably one that suits the political regimes of both countries. But as the scientists’ clandestine, parallel study of recent mass graves brings them closer to finding a link between the boy and “the disappeared,” the full forces of bureaucracy, fatalism, and forgetting are marshalled against them.

Not Long Ago Persons Found

Written by the editor of the Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, this practical book explains how to avoid such pitfalls of the medical professions as failure to diagnose, confidentiality, disclosure of information, lack of informed consent, and poor documentation. 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.

The New Science of Living a Longer, Healthier, More Vital Life

Quantum Body

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.

Chicago Series in Law and Society

"An essential introduction to the use and misuse of language within the criminal justice system, updated for a new generation. Does everyone understand the Miranda warning? Why do people confess to a crime they did not commit? Can linguistic experts identify who wrote an anonymous threatening letter? Since its first publication, Speaking of Crime has been answering these questions. Introducing major topics and controversies at the intersection of language and law, Lawrence M. Solan, Peter M. Tiersma, and Tammy Gales apply multidisciplinary insights to examine the complex role of language within the US justice system. The second edition features in-depth discussions of recent cases, new legislation, and innovative research advances, and includes a new chapter on who interprets the laws governing linguistic contexts. Thoroughly updated and approachable, Speaking of Crime is a state-of-the-art survey that will be useful to scholars, students, and practitioners throughout the criminal justice system"--

Speaking of Crime

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.

The book provides extensive details of such cases that include the background circumstances, psychological assessments and-in some cases-official clinical diagnoses, as well as numerous photos that illustrate what police, investigators, and medical examiners discovered during crime scene and autopsy inquiry.

The Surprising Science of Human Diversity

'One of Britain's top weight-loss experts' This Morning For years we've been told that successful weight loss is a simple matter of willpower and calorie control. But this argument fails to take into account how our brains and bodies respond to food - in particular, to the ultra-processed foods that seem inescapable in modern life. Bariatric surgeon and Sunday Times bestselling author Dr Andrew Jenkinson gives us a game-changing blueprint to free us from our biological impulses. Even though our brains are hardwired to seek out quick rewards in salty and sugary foods, he demonstrates how to escape our default behaviours to create long-lasting change. With cutting edge metabolic science, mental reprogramming strategies, easy lifestyle changes and even delicious recipes, maintaining a healthy weight never felt so good.

The Science to Surviving Our Ultra-Processed Food Environment

How to Eat (And Still Lose Weight)

The restoration of obliterated serial numbers and other unique identifiers on firearms, tools, and vehicles is a common request received by crime laboratories. The techniques and methods for restoration are scattered in many articles and reference books. This book brings together not only the methods of restoration, but where to locate the unique identifiers, how they are obliterated, and the scientific basis behind restoration. The focus is on firearms, tools, and vehicles but is also relevant to the field of manufacturing.
