The use of DNA profiling in forensic cases has been considered the most innovative technique in forensic science since fingerprinting. This volume is designed for nonscientific readers who need to learn how to effectively use forensic DNA in criminal cases. Topics include nuclear DNA short tandem repeat (STR) techniques, mitochondrial DNA, and Y-STR profiling. By imparting practical and theoretical knowledge in an accessible manner, the book demystifies the topic to help both sides of the adversarial system understand where DNA evidence fits within the context of the case.
