Riassunto
How has DNA typing developed? How it is used in forensic science? What challenges have arisen? Written for a general audience, this volume illustrates concepts through examples, illustrations, and cases. It builds on this understanding to dispel misconceptions and explains the power as well as the limitations of DNA methods.
