Medical Jurisprudence: Forensics, Toxicology, Necrophilia & Graphology is a concise, practice-oriented textbook designed to convert medical and scientific evidence into courtroom-ready material. The book opens with medico-legal fundamentals — chain-of-custody, scene-to-lab workflows and legal standards for admissibility — then proceeds to focused modules: (1) Forensic Medicine: injury interpretation, sexual assault examination, post-mortem basics and protocols for sensitive cases; (2) Toxicology: sampling, screening and confirmatory testing, interpretation of results, common poisons and medicolegal reporting standards; (3) Investigation of necrophilia and related offences: lawful examination protocols, evidence preservation and victim-/scene-sensitive procedures (presented clinically and non-sensationally); and (4) Graphology: handwriting analysis methodology, expert report drafting and cross-examination tips. Each chapter contains clear checklists, model medico-legal reports, specimen evidence-collection forms, illustrative case notes (non-graphic) and guidance for expert testimony under adversarial scrutiny. Emphasis is placed on reliability, standards of proof, inter-disciplinary coordination (police, lab, clinicians) and ethical responsibilities. The book prepares medical officers, forensic scientists, prosecutors and defence counsel to present and challenge expert evidence effectively while keeping victim dignity and legal safeguards front and centre.
