Crime Scene Chemistry for the Armchair Sleuth

""This book is a fresh and engaging look at forensic chemistry. Witty stories frame explanations and real experiments. The perps are in for it, time and time again, because they don’t know their chemistry!”
ROALD HOFFMAN, NOBEL LAUREATE

“Bravo! The authors bring the excitement of CSI to chemistry with a well-written text and demonstrations that readers can readily do at home. The reader will learn the essential chemistry behind forensic investigations as well as develop a valuable basis in the fundamentals of chemistry.”
JOHN A. POJMAN, PhD

“What a wonderful way to learn chemistry, experience the thrill of discovery, and have fun, all at the same time. This book does for forensic chemistry what Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes did for detective work.”
