Book Description:
Why are programs such as CSI, Law & Order, and Cold Case so popular? Because our culture is fascinated with crime and these television shows reveal investigators' procedures and secrets. With so many forensic based television programs, it might seem that North America's morbid curiosity is a new phenomenon. The truth is, however, that humanity has always been fascinated by that which also frightens them. What's more, humans are attracted to puzzles and forensic science offers opportunities to solve mysteries while at the same time 'catching the bad guys'. Modern media has only magnified the tendencies of previous generations. This book takes a look at the ways this fascination with crime shapes modern news media, television programming, movies, and the Internet. It also provides information on the real life opportunities for forensic careers. Forensic science is more than just a cultural obsession it's a fast growing professional field. 'Forensics in American Culture' will reveal this field's intriguing mixture of science, mystery, excitement, and justice.
