Forensic Science Handbook, Volume I, 3rd Edition, provides professional reference coverage of forensic testing, analysis, and evidence interpretation. Part of a two-volume series first published in 1982, the handbook addresses the legal, evidentiary, biological, and chemical dimensions of forensic practice.

The volume details instrumental methods such as mass spectrometry and chromatography alongside the characterization of trace materials and biological samples. Readers examine core laboratory techniques alongside the legal principles that guide forensic casework.
