Towards standardization
It is with utmost sincerity and enthusiasm that I recommend this book to all those interested in identification techniques using forensic art. The world is very lucky indeed to have someone like Karen Taylor take on the daunting task of writing a textbook on this subject. She has succeeded in giving the reader a complete work- and it is guaranteed to become the standard in the industry. Standardization in forensic art techniques is Ms. Taylor's admirable goal. She expresses a deep sensitivity to the victim of crime and she continualy emphasizes the importance of good interview technique. There is a sincerity in this work that lifts the reader. She enthusiastically expounds on the importance of continous study. The text is a lovely size and has a friendly feel. This is not a light subject, but Karen Taylor fills it with light.
