Biomechanics is the application of mechanical principles to living organisms,
and it is one of the most exciting and fastest growing research areas. In
forensic science, it is biomechanics that explains trauma to the body at a crime
scene or the fracture of fibers and textiles, and helps interpret blood spatter.
"Forensic Biomechanics" is a comprehensive overview of the role of biomechanics
in forensics. Well-illustrated with real-life case studies, and using a
multidisciplinary approach, this unique book is an invaluable reference for
practicing forensic scientists, lawyers, and researchers.
