Excellent text book, September 30, 2012

This was the best text book I've ever had. It's in an outline format, which was great. It was straight to the point and left out all the extra opinions that authors fell they need to put in text books. It's easy to read and learn from since it's in an outline format.

 Cliffnotes of Forensic Pathology, December 06, 2011

I am only as disappointed as I am with this book because of the price. Starting with the positives, the book is organized well, with a middle section of 10 or so colored photos. It is well written and easy to understand. However, it is miniscule. The book has 200 pages of actual text, thinner than most novels. It reads like a study book, or an outline you would make for class. Each subject has the bare minimum of information needed. No actual case studies or examples. I am most disappointed with the images. Most are hand drawn line images, there are only 10 or so actual photographs in the book. They are black and white in the pages but the middle section has them in color, but they are the same images! Why bother to print them twice? I am also comparing this to the Spitz and Fisher's book, but for half the price I was expecting a little better than an image of a stab wound and a few sentences on it in a chapter. If you need the bare minimum of information on forensics, or you are just looking to explore the topic a little more than for $20-30 this would be fine. But for $50, this book with its lack of examples, explanations, case studies and photographic images is really a bit steep.
