Recensioner i media

"The book is an updated edition of Bodziaks' jhighly respected Footwear Impression Evidence, published in 1990, which at the time also updated and brought together knowledge, which the footwear impression examiner would require in practice. . . There is no doubt that this book is essential reading for the footwear impression examiner, representing the most comprehensive considerations of footwear impression evidence to date. . . the book is an essential purchase for anyone involved in footwear identification. The first edition was a classic in its own right written by an acknowledged master in the field of footwear impression evidence. . . Despite this, I would undoubtedly recommend the book for those working in this area of identification." —Dr, Wesley Vernon PhD ”…contains virtually everything that a footwear mark examiner should know about, with information gleaned from all around the world… an extremely useful reference for any aspiring footwear mark examiner. Even long established examiners are likely to find something of interest in it.” — Science & JusticeReview of the first edition: ”By any measure this is a comprehensive treatment of the many forensic components of shoemark evidence.” —Forensic Science International
