Forensic Science Reform: Protecting the Innocent is written for the nonscientist to help make complicated scientific information clear and concise enough for attorneys and judges to master. This volume covers physical forensic science, namely arson, shaken baby syndrome, non-accidental trauma, bite marks, DNA, ballistics, comparative bullet lead analysis, fingerprint analysis, and hair and fiber analysis, and contains valuable contributions from leading experts in the field of forensic science.
- Offers training for prosecuting attorneys on the present state of the forensic sciences in order to avoid reliance on legal precedent that lags decades behind the science
- Provides defense attorneys the knowledge to defend their clients against flawed science
- Arms innocence projects and appellate attorneys with the latest information to challenge convictions that were obtained using faulty science
- Uses science-specific case studies to simplify issues in forensic science for the legal professional
- Offers a detailed overview of both the failures and progress made in the forensic sciences, making the volume ideal for law school courses covering wrongful convictions, or for undergraduate courses on law, legal ethics, or forensics

"Although fitting the design of a law school course book, FORENSIC SCIENCE REFORM is just as well suited for the library in a prosecutor’s or defense counsel’s office. It is as useful a guide to the strengths and limitations of common forensic disciplines as any single text available." --Advocacy and Evidence Resources"There is a revolution in forensic science in this country and this book provides a practical, detailed, and truly fascinating guide to how much has changed in the field. Students, lawyers, and scientists will all find this book eye opening, from its explanations of research to the case studies describing how forensics can go wrong." -- Brandon L. Garrett, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA, USA.
