"Synopsis"As a communicator and researcher engaged forensic DNA analyses, John Butler is at the pinnacle of his profession. As with the previous two volumes in this series, Butler leaves no stone unturned in the clarity of his A to Y coverage of forensic DNA interpretation. This book is bound to find its way onto the fingertips of practitioners, attorneys, and students."--Richard Saferstein, Ph.D., Chief Forensic Scientist (Retired) ".It is an excellent companion to his prior book on methodology, providing important information on interpretation of results. The book should prove valuable to all people involved in processing and interpreting results used in forensic genetics and criminal investigation."-- Bruce McCord, Ph.D., Professor, Florida International University "Advanced Topics in DNA Typing/Interpretation is Dr. John Butler's best book yet in his critically acclaimed series of DNA text books..."-- Stephen Patrick Hogan Adjunct Associate Professor of Biological Science and Criminal Justice, State University of New York at Albany Read less"

"From the Publisher: John Butler, bestselling author of Forensic DNA Typing, now applies his expertise on the subject of DNA analysis into an introductory textbook. Fundamentals of Forensic DNA Typing walks students step-by-step through the DNA analysis process beginning with collection of evidence at a crime scene to the statistical interpretation of the results. Also included are brief discussions of such news worthy topics as victim identification from the September 11, 2001 attacks, the identification of the remains of the Romano vs, the last Russian Royal family, and the O.J. Simpson case. New applications, such as genetic genealogy and tracing domestic pet hairs to perpetrators, are also detailed. With its clear and understandable style and extensive list of online ancillaries and study aids, this textbook will make the subject accessible to students in forensic science courses worldwide. Includes a glossary with over 400 terms for quick reference of unfamiliar terms as well as an acronym guide to decipher the DNA dialect; Continues in the style of Forensic DNA Typing, 2e, with high-profile cases addressed in D.N.A. Boxes. "Data, Notes & Applications" sections throughout; Ancillaries include: instructor manual Web site, with tailored set of 1000+ PowerPoint slides (including figures), links to online training websites and a test bank with key."

"This book deals with all aspects of plasmonics, basics, applications and advanced developments. Plasmonics is an emerging field of research dedicated to the resonant interaction of light with metals. The light/matter interaction is strongly enhanced at a nanometer scale which sparks a keen interest of a wide scientific community and offers promising applications in pharmacology, solar energy, nanocircuitry or also light sources. The major breakthroughs of this field of research originate from the recent advances in nanotechnology, imaging and numerical modelling. The book is divided into three main parts, extended surface plasmons polaritons propagating on metallic surfaces, surface plasmons localized on metallic particles, imaging and nanofabrication techniques. The reader will find in the book: Principles and recent advances of plasmonics, a complete description of the physics of surface plasmons, a historical survey with emphasize on the emblematic topic of Wood's anomaly, an overview of modern applications of molecular plasmonics and an extensive description of imaging and fabrications techniques."

"DNA typing -- the analysis of a biological sample for a person's genetic signature -- has led to the unprecedented exoneration of hundreds of wrongfully convicted people. And every day we hear stories about how police used DNA to capture a dangerous rapist or killer. Reading these accounts, it is hard not to think of DNA typing as an unmitigated good. Who can argue with a technology that helps catch bad guys and correct law enforcement mistakes? But there is a darker side to this story -- a version less likely to play out on dramatic television shows. In Inside the Cell, Erin Murphy shows how DNA typing can be subject to misuse, mistake, and error, and lead to a police state run amok"

"The book presents the fundamental results and methods of complex analysis and applies them to a study of elementary and non-elementary functions (elliptic functions, Gamma- and Zeta function including a proof of the prime number theorem ...) and - a new feature in this context! - to exhibiting basic facts in the theory of several complex variables."
