From the Flying Squad to Investigating War Crimes

236pp. Indexed. Lightly illustrated. Black cloth boards, in its original pictorial dust jacket. As new condition throughout. From the busy streets of London to the death pits of the Balkans, Ron Turnbull - as a Scotland Yard detective and an international war crimes investigator - has seen more of the brutal side of humanity than most. This volume traces the development of forensic science and techniques from the days of the fingerprint to the battery of tests now used in homicide investigations, told in Turnbull's personal and no nonsense style.
