Review
...this is a valuable, well written and well illustrated text that deserves to grace the shelves of forensic pathologists, and which will not be out of place on the shelf of any pathologist engaged in autopsy practice. (ACP News )

Waiting for the new edition of Forensic Pathology has been like waiting for the new instalment of Harry Pottter and it has certainly been worth the wait. This follow-up..has significantly improved on its predecessors and stands head and shoulders above its competitors... ....This is an excellent book useable by all hospital pathologists, forensic pathologists and professions allied to forensic science and it should be seen on the shelves of ecery forensic pathologist's library. (Science and Justice 2004 )

Hodder Arnold have yet again added a triumphant forensic text to their stable and are to be congratulated! (www.forensicmed.co.uk )

In Depth
This edition improves upon previous editions with many full colour photographs, and of course updated Pathological techniques. As a medical student with an interest in forensic pathology I find Knight shares his enourmous experience in a no-nonsense fashion, that makes the text both fascinating and easy to read. Every part of the autopsy is covered, as are all injury types and causes of death. The only thing that put's one off is the price tag, but it is no different than other high quality specialist texts.
