"Criminalistics Laboratory Manual provides students who have little or no prior knowledge of forensic science with a practical crime scene processing experience. The manual starts with a crime scene narrative, setting up the crime the students are to solve. This narrative is picked up in each of the 17 forensic science lab activities, tying all forensic disciplines together to show the integrated workings of a real crime lab."-- The Journal, Fall/Winter 2013 "Erickson...offers a textbook for an online forensics course, substituting household products and office supplies for the chemicals and equipment used in conventional classroom and laboratory courses. She demonstrates each step of the process from the initial 911 call to the final questions used to qualify an expert witness at trial in 17 laboratory sessions pivoting on an extended fictional murder case."-- Reference & Research Book News, December 2013
