A textbook of forensic medicine.
Twenty-five years have passed since Cyril Polson last updated his classic text Essentials of Forensic Medicine. This much anticipated edition maintains the distinctive and popular case-based approach of the original editions, but thoroughly revised to reflect modern twenty-first century practice. This fifth edition presents the reader with a united pathological and clinical perspective of all aspects of forensic medicine for the forensic practitioner and those working in allied disciplines.

Prof Christopher Milroy - Professor of Forensic Pathology, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK Prof Michael Pollanen - Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario and Forensic Science Program, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada Prof David Wells - Head of Clinical Forensic Medicine, Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine and Honorary Assoc Prof, Dept of Forensic Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia
