Description
Summary:"With the increase in the availability of data, the role of statistical and probabilistic reasoning is becoming ever more high profile, and courts are increasingly aware of the importance of the proper assessment of evidence in which there is random variation. Statistical techniques allow the forensic scientist to evaluate and interpret evidence where there is an element of uncertainty. Since its first publication in 1995, this highly regarded book has been considered as the leading text in statistical evaluation of forensic evidence. Bringing together authors from the fields of both statistics and forensic science, all international experts in the evaluation and interpretation of evidence, the third edition will be fully revised and updated to reflect the latest research and developments in this field."--
