Doctors have been asked to interpret wounds since antiquity. In \u003ci\u003eFrom Wounded Fairies to Sweet Fanny Adams\u003c\/i\u003e Dr. Peter Moore looks at how doctors got involved in crime, examining the accused or checking injuries, dating from the Edwin Smith papyrus, written in ancient Egypt in about 1600 BC which lists 48 cases involving wounds. He reveals how it was illegal to kill or maim a fairy in the time of Henry III, and how the Tudors and Stuarts didn't bother with police and doctors, but just boiled criminals. Charting the development of forensic science over the centuries, Dr. Peter Moore explains how the Police medical service gradually became more structured by the mid Nineteenth century, with the introduction of a Chief Surgeon and several Divisional Surgeons, caring for officers and providing medical care to prisoners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Moore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1914277058\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781914277054\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mango Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/04\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Peter Moore","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48442642530559,"sku":"9781914277054","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_13607a70-bda9-4282-8c75-60bca04de5d8.jpg?v=1777198777","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-wounded-fairies-to-sweet-peter-moore-9781914277054","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
