Description
Forensic pathology is a subject of wide general interest. This Colour Guide title, in the familiar small colour atlas format, will have broad appeal to students of medicine and doctors. The book comprises 70 double page spreads, each dealing with one subject, with a brief description on the left hand page and illustrations on the right. The unpredictability of forensic pathology cases means that, students seldom see appropriate autopsy material, and fixed specimens are unrealistic. This book gives the majority of students their best chance of experiencing a range of forensic pathology cases - easily and inexpensively.
