The 10 Best Forensic Medicine Textbooks
We spent 27 hours on research, videography, and editing, to review the top choices for this wiki. Forensic medicine is not for the faint of heart -- professionals in the field are responsible for performing accurate autopsies and investigating suspicious, and sometimes gruesome, deaths. If you’re looking to work in this area or are fascinated by postmortems, you’ll gain a solid grounding from one of the textbooks on our list, all of which offer in-depth information and instructive visuals.
When users buy our independently chosen editorial picks, we may earn commissions to support our work.
