en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 aug 2021

Recenzii

From the reviews of the third edition:
“The book presents a unique global perspective on every aspect of forensic medicine as it relates to the practicing physician. … it is a reliable guide for practical forensic case work. I found the third edition of Clinical Forensic Medicine to be an outstanding reference book and a definitive text on clinical forensic medicine. I would recommend it as an excellent resource for physicians, forensic pathologists, toxicologists and police officers.” (Petr Hejna, Forensic Science, Medicine and Pathology, Vol. 9, 2013)
