A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"As a communicator and researcher engaged forensic DNA analyses, John Butler is at the pinnacle of his profession. As with the previous two volumes in this series, Butler leaves no stone unturned in the clarity of his A to Y coverage of forensic DNA interpretation. This book is bound to find its way onto the fingertips of practitioners, attorneys, and students." --Richard Saferstein, Ph.D., Chief Forensic Scientist (Retired)
