Editorial Reviews
This is a gem of a book…The chapters on the diagnosis and definition of psychiatric disorder, interpretation of toxicology…and road traffic law…are alone worth the cost of the book. This brilliant book is a must-have for any practitioner who requires quick reference to forensic medicine.
The Oxford Handbook of Forensic Medicine is an essential must have for all forensic practitioners… Despite having been written for the Forensic Medical Examiner (FME), the topics covered have a great deal of relevance for all practitioners. The book shares relevance for both custody and sexual offence colleagues alike. (UK Association of Forensic Nursing Newsletter)
User Reviews

- Bought this to assist with role as FME – still fairly new at the job so often come up against unfamiliar problems. Slim volume with the (now standard oxford handbook) plastic cover – easily fits in handbag/doctors bag/glovebox.
As with the rest of the Oxford handbook series it is a good brief summary of the key points you need to make decisions when there is no one else around. Unlike the classic cheese and onion there are also a fair few sections of prose with interesting and relevant information about some of the grey areas.
Overall a useful book as a new FME – often refer to it and well worth the money.
