The tenth edition continues to provide an introductory text on forensic medicine for the student and the generalist who may at some stage be called upon to assist in forensic cases. The general plan has been retained, but the detail has been revised in the light of recent advances and many new topics added. The ethical duties of doctors has been emphasized, including their attitudes to abuse of human rights, the increasing problem of starvation, torture, explosives and firearms - which sadly reflects the changing world in which the responsibilities of doctors have to follow suit. A new chapter summarizing the major differences between the legal medicine of different countries, cultures and religions will hopefully add to understanding and general applicability of the text. An ELBS/LPBB edition is available.
