Specifically, the manual targets medical and forensic experts, legal practitioners and psychological counsellors. It seeks to address cases of forensic pathology, recent events including terrorism, torture, mass fatality incidences and cases of sexual violence (rape, sodomy, defilement) among others, with a view to ensuring quality investigations and procedures. The manual is also highly recommended as a reference text and resource for teaching forensic studies in colleges and universities and for training workshops. It both addresses key issues related to assessment and treatment of injuries with an emphasis on global best practices and sheds light on the legal, psychological and ethical issues that professionals ought to adhere to in the course of duty. It is a must-read for forensic practitioners and other professionals in the medico-legal field and the criminal justice system."--Page 4 of cover. 650 0 $a Forensic sciences $z Africa, East $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Forensic pathology $z Africa, East $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Forensic psychiatry $z Africa, East $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Criminal investigation $z Africa, East $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Medical ethics $z Africa, East $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Medical jurisprudence $z Africa, East $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 7 $a Criminal investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883201 650 7 $a Forensic pathology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00931990 650 7 $a Forensic psychiatry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00932002 650 7 $a Forensic sciences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00932011 650 7 $a Medical ethics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014081 650 7 $a Medical jurisprudence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014258 651 7 $a Africa, East. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239511 650 12 $a Forensic Sciences $x methods. $0 (DNLM)D044707Q000379 650 22 $a Criminal Law $x methods. $0 (DNLM)D003416Q000379 650 22 $a Crime Victims. $0 (DNLM)D019548 650 22 $a Violence. $0 (DNLM)D014754 650 22 $a Ethics, Medical. $0 (DNLM)D004992 651 2 $a Africa, Eastern. $0 (DNLM)D000351 655 7 $a Handbooks and manuals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423877 710 2 $a Independent Medico-Legal Unit (Kenya), $e sponsoring body. $e issuing body, $e sponsoring body. 710 2 $a Blue Mark Holdings Limited, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318013449.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=19B121020CF611EA99B9112E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
