Report

"...a fantastic resource for Colleges and Universities, it is also a must read for those who take their forensic and crime scene photography seriously enough to continually invest in new skills. I do recommend this book and have been able to use some of the practices in my teaching, while also learning new ideas myself." --CSEye
