Review

I would highly recommend it for reading by all those in latent fingerprint work, especially those testifying as experts." ---The Police Chief ." . .a comprehensive treatment of a singular development in the history of forensic identification. It will be of value to those who find, record, and identify fingerprints, and must also explain these activities in adversarial arenas.
