Pressestimmen
" ... a reference work of unparalleled excellence for forensic scientists and judicial personnel. It is packed with useful information, is well-organized, and profusely illustrated. ... a plethora of amazing radiographs and images, both black and white and in color. This book is a "must have" reference for not only radiologists, but for forensic scientists, especially forensic odontologists, medical examiners, and field investigators. Attorneys and others who must understand radiological findings in forensic cases will also want this book in their personal library." -Janet Barber Duval in Forensic Digest and Forensic Times " ... this beautifully written book should not be confined to the libraries of physicians. ... will be a welcome addition to the bookshelf of practitioners of forensic science of any sort." -Gregory G. Davis, M.D., in Journal of Forensic Science "The second edition of Brogdon's Forensic Radiology is updated, timely, and extremely well organized. It should be considered the new reference standard for forensic imaging." -American Journal of Roentgenology
