About this listen

Understand the real-life science behind crime-scene investigation.

Forensics for Dummies takes you inside the world of crime-scene investigation to give you the lowdown on this exciting field. Written by a doctor and former Law & Order consultant, this guide will have you solving crimes along with your favorite TV shows in no time. From fingerprints and fibers to blood and ballistics, you'll walk through the processes that yield significant information from the smallest clues. You'll learn how Hollywood gets it wrong and how real-world forensics experts work every day in fields as diverse as biology, psychology, anthropology, medicine, information technology, and more. If you're interested in a forensics career, you'll find out how to break in - and the education you'll need to do the type of forensics work that interests you the most. Written for the true forensics fan, this book doesn't shy away from the details; you'll learn what goes on at the morgue as you determine cause of death, and you'll climb into the mind of a killer as you learn how forensic psychologists narrow down the suspect list.

Crime shows are entertaining, but the reality is that most forensics cases aren't wrapped up in an hour. This book shows you how it's really done and the amazing technology and brilliant people that do it every day.

very interesting

I can't say this book went in depth about forensics, but then again it was for dummies. Worth the time spent listening to it.

Very well written

I enjoyed this book very much. Very informative. Lots of attention to detail, which I truly appreciate. I've ordered the hard copy of this book for my library.
The narrator would not have been my choice for reading the book.

I can't take any more fake drama

I very much want to know what is written in this book, but I cannot tolerate the narrator. For such a well-known series, why did they hire such a jerk to read the book? It is very rare that I completely stop listening to anything, and I think this title now has that honor.
