Forensic Biology, Third Edition, provides students with a general understanding of forensic biology, particularly in forensic serology and forensic DNA analysis, and addresses rapid advancements in the field over the past few years.
The book is divided into 26 chapters that are designed to be covered in a single-semester course for students majoring in forensic science, with the aim of equipping students with the knowledge needed to understand and apply new real-world techniques and methods to prepare them for entry into the field.
The third edition:
Provides clear explanations of the principles involved in forensic identification and the analysis of biological evidence
Explains the techniques used in forensic body fluid identification and DNA profiling, both in the field and in the laboratory
Discusses the benefits and limitations of various forensic biology techniques
Includes over four hundred color illustrations
Includes over three thousand in-text citations
This updated and comprehensive volume on forensic biology is suitable for use both in the classroom and as a reference for practicing professionals.
Richard Li earned his MS in forensic science from the University of New Haven and his Ph.D. in molecular biology from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. After completing his Ph.D., Dr. Li was awarded a postdoctoral fellowship at Weill Medical College of Cornell University and subsequently worked as a research faculty member at the School of Medicine of Yale University. Dr. Li has also served as a criminalist at the Department of Forensic Biology in the Office of Chief Medical Examiner of New York City. For the past several decades, he has held faculty positions in forensic science programs in the United States. Currently, Dr. Li is a faculty member at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and also serves as a faculty member for the Ph.D. program in criminal justice at the college. His research interests include identification and analysis of biological specimens that are potentially useful in forensic investigations.
