A major exhibition exploring the history,science and art of forensic medicine.'Forensics: The Anatomy of Crime' travels from crime scene to courtroom,across centuries and continents,exploring the specialisms of those involved in the delicate processes of collecting, analysing and presenting medical evidence.It draws out the stories of victims,suspects and investigators of violent crimes and our enduring cultural fascination with death and detection.THE DEAD TALK. To the right listener,they tell us all about themselves: where they came from,how they lived,how they died - and who killed them.Thanks to the messages left by a corpse,a crime scene or the faintest of human traces,forensic scientists can unlock the mysteries of the past and help justice to be done. 'Forensics' draws on interviews with top-level professionals,ground-breaking research and Val McDermid's own experience to lay bare the secrets of this fascinating scienc.And,along the way,she wonders at how maggots collected from a corpse can help determine time of death,how a DNA trace a millionth the size of a grain of salt can be used to convict a killer. In her novels,McDermid has been solving complex crimes and confronting unimaginable evil for years.Now,she's looking at the people who do it for real.It is a journey that will take her to war zones, fire scenes and autopsy suites,and help her uncover the facts behind real-life cases from Jack the Ripper to the Madrdid Train Bombings.
