Summary:This richly illustrated two-volume book offers a comprehensive and essential reference guide for veterinary pathologists and clinical veterinarians interested in performing animal necropsies for forensic casework.

This first volume introduces readers to veterinary forensics and the role of the veterinary pathologist in animal crime investigations.
