THE ULTIMATE READERS' GUIDE TO THE ART OF FORENSICS An intrepid investigator crawls through miles of air conditioning ducts to capture the implicating fibers of a suspect's wool jacket . . . A forensic entomologist discovers insects in the grill of a car and nails down a drug dealer's precise geographical path . . . A gluttonous criminal's fingerprints are lifted from a chocolate truffle. . . . Filled with these and many other intriguing true stories, and packed with black and white illustrations and photographs, The Forensic Casebook draws on interviews with police personnel and forensic scientists--including animal examiners, botanists, zoologists, firearms specialists, and autoposists--to uncover the vast and detailed underworkings of criminal investigation. Encyclopedic in scope, this riveting, authoritative book leaves no aspect of forensic science untouched, covering such fascinating topics as: - Securing a crime scene- Identifying blood splatter patterns
- Collecting fingerprints--and feet, lip, and ear prints
- Interpreting the stages of a body's decay
- Examining hair and fiber evidence
- Trace evidence from firearms and explosives
- "Lifting" DNA prints
- Computer crime and forensic photography
- Career paths in criminal science Lucidly written and spiked with real crime stories, The Forensic Casebook exposes the nitty gritty that other books only touch upon. Here is a reference book as addictive as a page-turning novel of suspense.

Not worth it, not indestructible
Color: Auburn, Color: Auburn
I'm giving no stars, thought this toy would last longer than 10 mins with my dog. Guess not, it says indestructible in the details but as you can tell that's a total lie. Not worth the money at all.

Not indestructible.
Color: Auburn
Our little 14 pound pomski loved this when I brought it home, but this is no indestructible. He has ripped the ropes apart.

Not for extremely aggressive chewers
Color: Auburn
I am sure this product is excellent for a small.puppy. I have a 8month huge German Shepard husky mix he had the arms and legs in shreds in less then 15 min and working on the body. If you have a large to extra large aggressive chewer this toy won't work for your dog. Other dogs yes 5 stars

Immediate yes, worth it!
Color: Auburn
My dog LOVES this toy. There’s ropes, different noises, tough canvas, this toy has it all! So so durable which is rare for dog toys. Super cute neutral colored toy for esthetics. Great size for tug of war or for my dog toys whip around, her personal favorite!

Pups love this toy!
Color: Auburn
This is a great toy. I have two pups under the age of 2, a goldador (half lab/golden) and a full golden. Both are very aggressive when they play and love to chew. This is not a chew toy so if left as a chew, it will be chewed and destroyed. But my two play tug together with this toy and love playing tug with this toy. I give this a 4 star rating because it has been destroyed, basically because I left it down to long and one of them starting to chew it. I am planning to purchase another and another and another. :)
