| | The Role Of Entomology In Forensic Investigations |
| | The temperature of a body is affected by many variables such as the circumstances of death, the environmental conditions, whether the deceased took drugs or whether the deceased struggled.(Baden and Hennesse, 1989) Bodies also cool at various rate according to weight and fitness (Knight, 19??). | | | While the information presented here is from reliable sources, there is no substitute for training or personal experience. | | | Every insect tells a story about the conditions the body has passed through and the places it's been. |

| | This book, Forensic Entomology: The Utility of Arthropods in Legal Investigations, focuses on the criminological application of entomology and provides a smorgasbord of medicocriminal entomology and associated practices prepared by leading practicing scientists in this and related disciplines. | | | Accordingly, these arthropods are often found associated with human activities, including homicide, as we encounter them in our daily lives. | | | Forensic entomology is the application of entomological evidence to resolving litigation (civil cases) and solving crimes, most often those of violence and death (medicocriminal cases). |
