Skull beneath the skin
This is an excellent text book for the forensic artist. It gives a step by step instruction in recreating the face from the skull. It is also a good reference for writers interested in creating characters who have this sort of knowledge in crime solving. |
A must have
This is the Bible of Forensic Art. I interviewed numerous Forensic Artists and researched many workshops ALL of which reccommended this book...I was not disappointed. |
Don't leave home without it...
Forensic Art and Illustration is completely indispensible to anyone serious about learning any aspect of forensic art, and also to the merely curious. I bought it because I had long been interested in facial reconstruction, and wanted to try it on my own. This book made the process remarkably easy, detailing how to build a stand to mount the skull on, lengths and locations of the tissue depth markers, and proper application of the clay, all accompanied by clear and easy-to-follow photos of Betty Pat. Gatliff's excellent work. There is also a very comprehensive section on two-dimensional facial reconstruction (largely Ms. Taylor's own innovation) that is worth the price of admission in itself.
The book is highly approachable, and accessible to anyone with even the vaguest interest in the subject. Every facet of forensic art (including its history) is covered in brilliant detail, so that the book serves as a truly practical manual as well as a fascinating read. Forensic Art and Illustration really is the gold standard in the field. Don't be caught without a copy in your forensic library. |
Forensic Art and Illustration
This is an excellent book. It lives up to its reputation as the gold standard for its class. |
Back cover
Forensic Art and Illustration
As the number of stranger-on-stranger crimes grows, solving those crimes becomes more challenging. Forensic illustration has become increasingly important as a tool for identifying both perpetrators and victims. Now Karen T Taylor, a leading forensic artist who has taught this subject at law enforcement academies, medical schools, and univesities internationally, offers readers the benefir of her extensive knowledge and experience. Forensic Art and Illustration is the first book to provide complete coverage of all aspects of the field, and includes much previously unavailable information.
Beginning with the first-in-depth documentation of the history of forensic art, this book proceeds logically through explanations of facial anatomy, practical methodologies and techniques, and case examples. More than 800 illustrations and photographs depict art methods used for identifying and locating crime victims and criminal offenders. Numerous successful examples, taken from actual solved cases, demonstrate applications of the methods and techniques presented. Ideal for criminal justice personnel, anthropologists, artists, mental health professionals, and others interested in the field. Forensic Art and Illustration is both a practical guide and a fascinating study of the state of the discipline of forensic art today.
