Investigating Chemistry: A Forensic Science Perspective
Forensic science is becoming an increasingly popular subject for
today's students as well as being the inspiration for countless
hit television shows. Now Matthew Johll has created an innovative,
new chemistry book that introduces students from a non-science
background to the fundamentals of chemistry through a captivating
array of examples and applications from real-life crime scenes,
Sherlock Holmes stories and authentic accounts of drug deals,
murders and thefts.SupplementsInstructor's Resource CD ROM
