商品描述

The field of forensic neuropathology covers such controversial topics as the effects of repeated brain trauma in football players and how babies probably cannot die from being shaken. Jan Leestma is one of the most respected voices in this area. A timely update to his classic reference, Forensic Neuropathology: Third Edition presents an encyclopedic exposition of neuropathological conditions that may have forensic import.

 

 

Reflecting the latest research, this edition includes expanded sections on multiple trauma, one punch/one hit arterial injuries, and the physiology of respiratory control. It presents new perspectives and rules regarding expert testimony and evidence admissibility occasioned by Daubert and related Supreme Court cases. The book explores how these rulings affect forensic pathologists, neuropathologists, and other potential experts as well as how they interact with the legal system.

 

 

 

 

Several chapters examine the mechanisms and pathophysiology of neuropathological conditions and discuss the biomechanical basis for neurological injury. Where possible, aging and dating methodology is included for various processes. More than 325 updated full-color illustrations complement the text along with diagrams, tables, and figures that illustrate the textual material and can be useful as exhibits in court. An extensive bibliography provides background information and facilitates further research.

 

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

法醫神經病理學領域涵蓋了一些具爭議性的主題，例如足球運動員重複腦部創傷的影響，以及嬰兒可能不會因為被搖晃而死亡的情況。Jan Leestma 是這個領域中最受尊敬的聲音之一。這本及時更新的經典參考書籍《法醫神經病理學：第三版》提供了對可能具有法醫意義的神經病理狀況的百科全書式闡述。

本版反映了最新的研究，擴展了多重創傷、單擊/單擊動脈損傷以及呼吸控制生理學的相關章節。它提出了關於專家證詞和證據可接受性的新的觀點和規則，這些觀點和規則源於《Daubert》及相關的最高法院案件。該書探討了這些裁決如何影響法醫病理學家、神經病理學家及其他潛在專家，以及他們如何與法律系統互動。

幾個章節檢視神經病理狀況的機制和病理生理學，並討論神經損傷的生物力學基礎。在可能的情況下，還包括了各種過程的老化和定年方法。超過325幅更新的全彩插圖輔助文本，並附有圖表、表格和圖形，這些都能說明文本內容並可作為法庭上的證據。廣泛的參考書目提供背景信息並促進進一步研究。
