Challenges in Detection Approaches for Forensic Science

This book will explore the specific challenges encountered by forensic scientists and the developments that are being made to address the requirement of law enforcement agencies within the framework of the legislative requirements. Currently there are many forensic science books, which focus on the underlying theory of chemical approaches, but there is a clear gap in the dissemination of the current state of the art approaches for forensic science. This gap includes current detection strategies and how legislation and changes to forensic practices has prompted these changes as well as how research in the field is seeking to address the current hurdles in a cohesive manner. For graduates and forensic professionals, it will also cover essential principles for students and illustrate how these relate to applications.
