Crime and the Construction of Forensic Objectivity from 1850 by Alison AdamEnglish | EPUB | 2020 | 319 Pages | ISBN : 3030288366 | 3.74 MB
This book charts the historical development of 'forensic objectivity' through an analysis of the ways in which objective knowledge of crimes, crime scenes, crime materials and criminals is achieved. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, with authors drawn from law, history, sociology and science and technology studies, this work shows how forensic objectivity is constructed through detailed crime history case studies, mainly in relation to murder, set in Scotland, England, Germany, Sweden, USA and Ireland.
