As forensic technology becomes more sophisticated, courts are demanding more scientific content and juries are expecting meticulous confirmation of facts alleged. Applying physics, chemistry, and engineering to the process of analysis and interpretation, this volume offers a starting point for significant change in the way that impression evidence is presented. Concepts discussed include the three-dimensional nature of the human fingerprint, dimensional stabilityand striation mark issues, the research and development of electrostatic scans, the growing availability of new measurement techniques, and the use of personal experimentation to support conclusions or confirm that which is otherwiseconsidered fact.
