A pioneer of modern forensic anthropology reveals secrets of the world's first-and only-laboratory devoted to death.
Forensic science and murder investigations are among the most fascinating topics of our time. Dominating television and print media every season, both as fiction and nonfiction, the subject could not be hotter. As one of the world's leading forensic anthropologists, Dr. Bill Bass is the premier guide to this unusual world.
Nowhere is there another lab like Dr. Bass's: on a hillside in Tennessee, human bodies decompose in the open air, aided by insects, bacteria, and birds, unhindered by coffins or mausoleums. At the "Body Farm," nature takes its course with corpses buried in shallow graves, submerged in water, locked in trunks of cars. As scientific stand-ins for murder victims, they serve the needs of science-and the cause of justice.
For thirty years, Dr. Bass's research has revolutionized the field of forensic science, particularly by pinpointing "time since death" in murder cases. In his riveting book, he investigates real cases and leads readers on an unprecedented journey behind the locked gates of the "Body Farm." A master scientist and engaging storyteller, Bass shares his most intriguing cases: his revisit of the Lindbergh kidnapping and murder fifty years later; the mystery of a headless corpse, whose identity astonished police; the telltale bugs that finally sent a murderous grandfather to death row-and many more.

一开始买的时候是抱着猎奇的心理去的,但看到现在却没有了那种猎奇的感觉,如果你是想看一些刺激跌宕的破案,这本书一点都不适合你。 很真实,本以为所有的案件都得到了破解,但不是,有很多案件,作者尽全力了,但还是没办法,这才是真正的法医吧,不是神,也有无奈啊。 ...

评分罗豫/文 “少年包青天”、“神探狄仁杰”、“大宋提刑官”、“鉴证实录”、CSI……近年来,法医学知识频频成为影视剧和侦探小说的卖点。法医学成了编剧作家用来吊足受众胃口的“包袱”,但在国内多数大学,却还不能成为一个独立的系所甚至专业。同样的,相对专业地介绍法医学...

评分屁颠屁颠地追完四五季《CSI》和《Criminal Mind》,对于美国的刑事犯罪以及法医行业产生了浓厚的兴趣!但奈何专业的书籍学术性太强,一直都没在国内找到一本引人入胜的法医书籍!而这本《法医鉴证实录》虽没有电视情节里将法医塑造的那么神乎其神,但是幽默的描述,真实的记录...
