In its first edition, this book was a clear, concise, and easy-to-read introduction to the laboratory analysis for detection of arson. Retaining all of those qualities that made it the definitive text on the subject, the second edition now includes coverage of the latest methods and technologies used for investigating arson. New topics include the use of ...sniffer... dogs to detect accelerant scents; automated GC-MS; solid phase micro extraction (SPME); and the National Fire Protection Association Document 921. The book's straight-forward explanations make it appealing not only to the seasoned professional, but also to the beginning investigator and attorney needing to understand and communicate scientific principles.
