4.0 out of 5 stars what a way to start, September 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Forensic Science: An Introduction To Criminalistics (Hardcover)
Ideal for police officers and crime lab techs. If you expect to work on crime scenes or deal with those who do, this is the book for you. It gives the ideals and the basics for crime scene work. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine introduction to the field; but, listing data may be a problem., May 28, 2009

This review is from: Forensic Science: An Introduction To Criminalistics (Hardcover)
This © 1983 volume is the first year of publication. It was still being distributed to educators for evaluation by the College Division of McGraw Hill in 1983. It can NOT possibly be the 70th printing. That appears to result from a mis-reading (by the product lister) of the (HALHAL) Halliday printing code, which differs from the typical book number line. I have not been able to find a reference to interpret the second half of that line, in which the numbers "1" and "2" are missing and the "8" occurs twice. I suspect it to be the date of printing. It just can NOT be the 70th printing. [see the image from the edition & copyright page]
As listed, this printing statement information is unreliable for reference in academic or literary work and/or citation. If anyone knows, I would appreciate any additional information to explain and verify the "HALHAL" code being used by Halliday Lithographic Corporation, at that time.
