The Science of Fingerprint Analysis explores the history, principles, and applications of one of the most reliable tools in forensic science. Tracing its origins from ancient civilizations to modern-day digital forensics, the book explains how fingerprints, with their unique ridge patterns, provide unquestionable individuality and permanence. It details the fundamental patterns-loops, whorls, and arches-and the minutiae points that form the basis of identification. Readers are introduced to classification systems, from the Henry Classification to advanced Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS), as well as techniques for detecting latent prints using powders, chemicals, and digital enhancement. The book highlights the role of fingerprints in criminal justice, landmark legal cases, and their growing use in civil identity verification through biometrics. Challenges such as forgery attempts, errors, and ethical concerns surrounding mass fingerprint databases are also examined. By blending history, science, law, and technology, the book demonstrates how fingerprint analysis remains an indispensable and evolving tool for justice and security in the modern world.
