How to Read Crime Traces: What Pop Culture Won't Tell You

Any object contains information. But how many of them can tell about the hidden details of a crime? Sometimes the most mundane and inconspicuous things – a fingerprint, a sole print, a scrap of paper or hair – become the key to the truth.

This book is an illustrated guide to forensic techniques, prepared by Doctor of Law D. V. Voronkov, author of the projects group crimlib.info. It contains over 200 scientific and historical facts about material traces of crimes and methods of their investigation – from traces on the human body to digital footprints on the internet. 

This edition is aimed at a wide audience including students, teachers, and anyone interested in forensic science.
