A thief touches a doorknob, leaving behind fingerprints as clues to the crime. A woman is mysteriously killed, and only an autopsy can explain how and why. Many crimes have been solved–and many who are accused have been found innocent–thanks to DNA. In Forensics, part of Full Tilt’s Origins: Whodunnit series, readers will learn about the science involved in crime-fighting and how it has impacted the way crimes are solved and committed. A detailed timeline, keywords, and fun facts will allow readers to discover the unique insights that forensic study can offer.
