Book description
This book bridges the divide between traditional legal texts
dealing with the office and jurisdiction of the coroner, and those forensic
medical and scientific texts dealing with the technical aspects of death
investigation. It provides a comprehensive overview of the legal, technical,
scientific, and medical features surrounding the investigations carried out
by coroners.
