Essentials of Autopsy Practice

A practical hands-on bench book covering difficult areas of autopsy for the modern pathologist. Rutty's book is unique -- chapters deal with issues never previously discussed and have been specifically selected to fill a gap in the market, not just re-hash old ideas. Designed for consultants and trainees alike, not only pathologists of all types but also non-medics involved with the dead in any way -- lawyers, police, bereavement officers, undertakers. The first volume has become a reference aid to autopsy issues for all grades of lawyers. Thus the audience that the book reaches is greater than a pure autopsy or forensic pathology textbook.
