TCCC: Everything about wound ballistics.

For those who, for professional reasons - whether as an expert, criminologist, forensic pathologist, member of the police or as a surgeon - or simply out of personal interest, want to delve deeper into wound ballistics, there is very little high-quality specialist literature available. Therefore, it is all the more pleasing that the standard work on wound ballistics, the book "Wound Ballistics - Fundamentals and Applications" is now available in its 4th edition.

The current edition has been expanded in the areas of synthetic bones and police bullets for handguns. The section on hunting bullets has been expanded to include lead-free bullets and the chapter "Wound Ballistics in Forensic Medicine" has been revised and updated. To provide the necessary basic understanding, the relevant areas of physics, ballistics, etc. are discussed in an easily understandable manner at the beginning. The main part imparts the expertise for forensic medicine and criminology, emergency and wartime surgery of bullets, but also on injuries caused by gas weapons and non-lethal projectiles. The book is rounded off with a reference table and a trilingual specialized glossary (D/E/F). Editor and main author Dr. sc. forens., Dr. med. h.c. Beat Kneubuehl is undoubtedly an absolute authority in this field.
