Product description

Knights Forensic Pathology has become a standard reference book worldwide. The unambiguous style, practical orientation, and an approach based strictly on scientific evidence together with the experience of the authors have contributed to this success. A cautious and self-critical interpretation of autopsy findings is required for a correct diagnosis, and these findings become the cornerstone for investigating unexplained fatalities. Whenever possible, macroscopic evaluation should be complemented by visiting the scene of death, pre-autoptic imaging, biochemical and toxicological analyses as well as histological examinations.This latest edition represents a comprehensive revision, incorporating cutting-edge research and contemporary scientific literature in the field. The text has been significantly enriched with an extensive collection of new full-colour photographic documentation, primarily sourced from recent forensic autopsies conducted at the prestigious Freiburg Institute of Forensic Medicine. The commitment to case-based learning is maintained by presenting meticulously documented cases that highlight crucial morphological findingsan approach that remains invaluable in developing the forensic pathologist's critical diagnostic acumen and observational expertise.
