specialties that would be involved in legal and forensic medicine. … This
book serves as a wonderful reference and resource book for clinicians and
other medical professionals involved in clinical forensic medicine. This
edition is well updated and well organized for any reader, from student to
professional.” (Catherine Perez, Doody’s Book Reviews, July 31, 2020) From

various jurisdictions of legal limits for drugs based on zero tolerance or
a risk based approach.Written by a team of experts, the new edition of this
book is a valuable resource for forensic healthcare professionals including
doctors, nurses and paramedics working in general forensic medicine and
sexual offence medicine, as well as emergency physicians, pediatricians and
gynaecologists.
