Description
Summary:"Since publication of the first edition, there have been changes in primer compositions and the particle classification system. Such changes are fully covered in addition to updated information on evidence collection, testing methods, and best practices in techniques. Two new chapters cover interesting/ unusual firearms cases as well as a controversial, landmark Australian case involving inorganic and organic gunshot residue. While the suspect was initially convicted of murder, the ruling was subsequently overturned The case clearly illustrates the dangers of incorrect forensic evidence and the need for careful training of forensic scientists. This new edition will fill that void."--Provided by publisher.
