5.0 out of 5 stars Good summary for the USA, June 7, 2004

By 

Elizabeth K. Reiter (Fountain City, WI) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Opportunities in Forensic Science Careers (Paperback)

Quite a short book, but it's not a huge topic. Oriented towards the forensic science arena in the USA, it doesn't offer any tips for internationalizing its summaries, so the international reader is left with little idea of the differences in the way the field is structured. That said, it does summarize the opportunities available for general criminalists, pathologists, toxicologists, crime scene managers and so on, and gives rough salary, training estimates, brief job descriptions, along with example job advertisements for each section.
