On this page, you will find links to websites on Police Science that you might find useful, as well as direct links to relevant books on Amazon. Those book links are affiliate links, which means if you decided to buy one of the books, whilst you would pay the same price as if you had searched through Amazon yourself, and the author / publisher gets the same price, I get a small commission from Amazon for bringing the two of you together. Thank you.
