In this edition, the authors state: “We have written the 3rd edition of Fundamentals of Forensic Science as the field is once again at a critical juncture, facing significant challenges. Commentators like Saks and Kohler have questioned the paradigm of scientific evidence individualization, accelerating the pace of change.

This momentum was further propelled by the 2009 National Academy of Sciences (NAS) report, which, while acknowledging the strengths of forensic science, exposed numerous weaknesses. Since the report, progress has been slow, but there has been a recent surge of efforts to address these concerns.

The Departments of Justice and Commerce have established the National Commission on Forensic Science to lead a national initiative aimed at improving the field. This Commission has formed the Organization of Scientific Advisory Committees, tasked with developing consensus standards for the handling of forensic evidence. These steps represent a hopeful push towards reform and the resources needed to resolve the existing shortcomings in forensic science.

Progress often comes with challenges, and forensic science is no exception. In this edition, we’ve incorporated updates to reflect recent developments and emerging trends since the 2nd edition. Topics like policy, new methods, and expanding fields such as digital evidence are discussed, showcasing the dynamic nature of forensic science and its potential for future growth.

We hope you enjoy this updated edition of Fundamentals of Forensic Science and that it enhances your understanding of this fascinating and ever-evolving discipline.”
