Lee and Gaensslen's Advances in Fingerprint Technology

Reflecting new discoveries in fingerprint science, Lee and Gaensslen’s Advances in Fingerprint Technology, Third Edition has been completely updated with new material and nearly double the references contained in the previous edition. The book begins with a detailed review of current, widely used development techniques, as well as some older, historical methods. Next, it describes more recent advances as well as novel, emerging technologies that have just begun to reach maturity.\nHighlights in this edition include:\nComprehensive details about work performed by the UK Home Office on the use of powders and brushes\nAdvances in the area of blood reagents, and the transition from previously carcinogenic peroxidase reagents to new and safer protein staining methods\nThe vacuum metal deposition technique\nThe cyanoacrylate fuming process\nAn update on ninhydrin analogs\nEmerging trends in print development using nanotechnology\nLatent print recovery and decontamination at scenes tainted by chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive materials\nA model for quantitatively interpreting and assessing minutiae in a print\nMethods for digital and chemical imaging of latent prints\nWith contributions by a renowned group of leading forensic scientists and criminalistics experts, this valuable work presents the latest progress in fingerprint technologies, comparison, and identification.

Aimed at medical students, this title concentrates on the clinical aspects of biochemistry. Clinical points are highlighted, along with case histories, flow charts and summaries of essential information. The book lets medical students understand how to interpret laboratory results and see how clinical biochemistry relates to the care of the patient, without uneccessary scientific detail and laboratory techniques. It aims to present the subject in a user-friendly way with double-page spreads, numerous diagrms and colour illustrations, so making it suitable for both learning and for revision.

The use of statins in clinical practice has become an established part of modern medicine. They were introduced in the late 1980s and early 1990s as a new group of cholesterol-lowering drugs, but have since become agents that have an important effect in reducing not only blood lipid levels but also an individual's risk of vascular disease. The aim of this text is to place the use of statins in primary care in a clinical context and to explain how these drugs work. Pharmacology, comparative mechanisms, practical considerations, day-to-day problems and the future of statins are all explored.

No member of the primary care team can afford to be indifferent to the tremendous developments that have taken place in the areas of coronary heart disease and vascular disease prevention. This new edition of Statins in General Practice includes data from the major new clinical trials. This short book contains everything that the general practitioner or practice nurse needs to know to use statins effectively and safely. The use of statins in clinical practice has become an established part of modern medicine.

Coronary heart disease is the single most important cause of death in our society, incurring enormous costs both in human and financial terms. The underlying disease process is atherosclerosis, an inflammatory response to endothelial injury. Fortunately, pharmaceutical products for lipid-lowering and coronary artery stents are available to cardiologists in order to produce a reversal, a regression of atherosclerotic disease, thus helping to lower the rates for sudden death, myocardial infarction and angina pectoris. The authors neatly summarize all coronary risk factors and treatments to reduce them.
