Forensic Gait Analysis

This book introduces the intersection of podiatric medicine with forensic investigation, a study which links suspects to crimes through analysis of their style of movement. It provides a thorough yet concise explanation of how the musculoskeletal system and biomechanics affect gait. A DVD with videos of perpetrators that have been analyzed is provided, with direction as to what information can be extracted from the footage, and how to compare it to the known footage of a suspect.
