PREFACE TO NINTH EDITION
I trust that, having thoroughly revised the "Aids to Forensic Medicine,"
it may prove as useful to students preparing for examination in the
future as it has been in the past.

PREFACE TO EIGHTH EDITION
This work of the late Dr. William Murrell having met with such a large
measure of success, the publishers thought it would be well to bring out
a new edition, and invited me to revise the last impression.
This I have done, and while retaining Dr. Murrell's text closely, I have
made large additions, in order to bring the "Aids" up to present
requirements. I have also rearranged the matter with the object of
making the various sections more consecutive than they were previously.
