50 Situations Awaiting Every Forensic Scientist: A Professional Effectiveness Handbook - 2nd Edition

50 Situations Awaiting Every Forensic Scientist is a personal guide to navigating the unique challenges and opportunities faced by America's forensic laboratory scientists. Charged with the awesome responsibility of giving a voice to the most commonly collected items of crime scene evidence, these highly trained professionals have a profound and lasting impact on the fairness and efficiency of our criminal justice system. In this thoughtful collection of heartfelt advice, humorous reflections, and candid self-admissions, acclaimed forensic laboratory administrator and expert witness coach, John M. Collins, encourages readers to stand tall in the face of adversity and opportunity. There is no such thing as a typical forensic science career, but there are situations, both common and uncommon, that can disorient even the most capable professionals if they are not prepared for them. Written from the perspective of one of the most recognized and respected forensic science leaders, not only in the United States but also internationally, 50 Situations promises to inspire and motivate, while also cautioning forensic scientists to remain alert for situations that are especially threatening or perplexing. Luck favors the prepared, which is why this book is a must-read for forensic science professionals at all levels of experience and responsibility who are interested in maximizing their individual effectiveness.

Two special features have been included in the 2nd edition for readers who are students or practicing forensic scientists. The first is the addition of five coaching questions at the end of each situation to facilitate reflection and discussion for both individuals and study groups. The second is a special chapter addressing criticisms launched against forensic science professionals by innocence activists in the criminal justice reform movement. While recognizing the legitimacy of this movement, the author puts these criticisms into their proper context.
