Forensic science through hands-on investigation

Carla Mooney’s introduction connects the steps of crime-scene investigation with the science used to examine evidence. Activities invite readers to document a scene, identify fingerprints, analyze blood spatter, and extract DNA, while illustrations, sidebars, and vocabulary support explain key concepts. A glossary and a directory of reference works, websites, museums, and science centers extend the book beyond its projects, making it both an activity-based introduction and a starting point for further exploration.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults curious about forensic science and crime-scene investigation
  • Readers who enjoy learning through practical projects and evidence analysis
  • Students seeking an introductory resource with a glossary and further-reference suggestions
