The definitive hands-on guide to forensic science techniques and principles, the Forensic Science Laboratory Manual and Workbook, Fourth Edition provides students with the essential knowledge and practical skills needed to excel in the field of forensic science. Through 47 carefully structured experiments, students will gain hands-on experience with the fundamental techniques used by forensic scientists in real-world investigations.

Designed for cooperative learning environments, this manual guides students through:



Core forensic principles including Locard's Exchange Principle and the Principle of Individualization
Essential laboratory techniques—from fingerprint analysis and crime scene documentation to ballistics and DNA testing
Critical thinking skills through scientific reasoning, deduction, and problem-solving exercises
Professional procedures for evidence collection, preservation, and analysis

Each experiment features clear learning objectives, detailed background information, step-by-step instructions, and thought-provoking questions that reinforce understanding. Whether examining trace evidence, analyzing bloodstain patterns, or conducting forensic anthropology assessments, students will develop the practical skills needed for success in this dynamic field.

Written by three renowned forensic experts and educators, this Fourth Edition presents valuable instruction and practice in forensic science, preparing the next generation of scientists for the current challenges in evidence analysis and modern criminal investigation.

Nicholas Petraco is an Adjunct Full Professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York (CUNY). Thomas Kubic is currently a professor of forensic chemical instrumentation, scientific and expert testimony, electron microscopy, and advanced trace evidence analysis at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York (CUNY), and director of TAKA Instructional Agency, a New York State not-for-profit educational institution concentrating on training in microscopy. Brooke W. Kammrath is a Professor of Forensic Science at the University of New Haven and Co-Executive Director of the Henry C. Lee Institute of Forensic Science.
