About This Book

This volume presents a systematic medico-legal handbook that explains physiological mechanisms behind sudden and violent death, asphyxia, syncope, exposure, and poisoning, and outlines forensic approaches to rape, homicide, suicide, and accidental injury. It provides procedural guidance for on-scene inquiry, inspection of the body, examination of surroundings, witness interrogation, and anatomical dissection, along with practical rules for treating asphyxia and interpreting injuries. Appendices collect relevant statutes, judicial decisions, and illustrative case reports to support medico-legal practice and coroners’ inquests.
