Overview

Forensic Neuropathology succeeds in combining the concerns of the forensic pathologist with those of the neuropathologist, addressing the overlapping problems which arise from the autopsy and subsequent legal proceedings. The editor has the unique experience of working jointly as a forensic pathologist and as a neuropathologist. A wide range of illustrations complement the text, many in full colour.
