Advances in Fingerprint Technology,
This review is from: Advances in Fingerprint Technology (Forensic and Police Science Series) (Hardcover)
Advances in Fingerprint Technology edited by Henry C. Lee and R.E. Gaensslen is a specialized book that focuses on the science of fingerprinting. It is an anthology of selected works by recognized experts in the field and includes a chapter by Lee and Gaensslen. The text highlights historical events, fingerprint classification basics, matching latent impression methods, use of laser enhancement, digital image processing techniques and computer applications in AFIS systems. It also examines the development of latent fingerprints by using the application of powders, chemical treatments and fuming compounds. In addition, the text includes a discussion of numerous reagents and chemical compounds for locating latent prints. Easy instructions are given for mixing and using reagents as well as a thorough discussion of the chemical reactions involved. The concluding chapter includes suggestions for testifying in court as an expert witness. This book could be used as a reference to determine methods for developing latent prints, and resourceful defense and prosecuting attorneys could use this text as a reference in preparing their cases. Moreover, fingerprint technicians and forensic scientists would find it helpful in determining which methods would be useful in obtaining latent prints. Forensic science laboratories and identification divisions in law enforcement agencies would also find this text a beneficial reference to have available. It contains a plethora of references for those seeking additional background and information on the topic. Anyone who has an interest in forensic science would find this text not only well documented but informative.
