    Its a Matter of Life or Death That You Read This Book
  

*by F***4 on Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2016*

Dying is sometimes easier than living with dying….These words could not be more true.  Morgue a Life in Death is a book  written by Dr Vincent DiMaio, who was the chief medical examiner for the state of New York and renown gunshot wound expert.  Some of the US's most complex legal cases have hinged on testimony from the medical examiner or medical pathologist.  The medical examiner is the one who speaks for the dead.Dr Vincent DiMaio, has worked on and testified in some very famous and often complex medical cases of our day. One of the most famous cases that the good Dr worked is the Travon Martin case .  Dr DiMaio was the expert witness for George Zimmerman defence, Dr DiMaio was able to determine the trajectory of the gun shot to prove innocence or guilt.Dr DiMaio was also the voice for 30 innocent babies that were murdered by Martha Wood who it was later to be found had Munchausen's by Proxy thanks to the post mortem investigations done on the babies by Dr DiMaio.  He has also provided expertise in celebrity trials such as Lee Harvey Oswald, JFK, and Phil Spector. EMy Thoughts:I absolutely loved this book not only was it thought provoking but the facts and forensics that were discussed throughout the book were very interesting. The book was well written and kept me highly engaged to the point I did not want to put it down. It was not over complicated with the medical jargon and was easy to follow. This was a real page turner. Also the pictures that were provided in the  middle of the book were wonderful and helped connect the face with the case so it feels like you are really a part of mystery and the solution.

    Forget the Media Soundbites...Heres the Truth & Science Behind Some Famous (and not so famous) Cases
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2016*

I finished this book in just a couple of days. It's a really good read featuring several well-known and not-so-well-known cases in which forensics played a key role in bringing criminal charges or clearing suspects...or simply giving families the truth behind a loved one's death. It gives the reader a peek into each investigation - revealing the truth and science behind it, rather than the emotions, sound bites, media hype and false narratives that sometimes muddy them.Even though it's about forensic pathology and the science behind death investigations, this is not a "science" book. It's written so the "I don't understand science" reader - like me - can understand. It's not gory, nor is it disrespectful to the victims or their families.Di Maio portrays the mindset, experience and approach I'd look for in an investigator. Francell's writing is easy to swallow...I call it writing for the ear...making it seem like you're listening in on a conversation rather than reading. I really enjoyed the book and recommend it for news junkies, true crime readers, and anyone interested in forensic pathology or crime investigation.I'm somewhat surprised by fellow reviewers' comments about the authors' politics. I did not read any political nuances throughout the book. I can only guess that some readers look for hidden political messages in whatever they read - and may be more interested in being continually offended than reading a book for what it is.

    Excellent summer reading material.
  

*by V***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2016*

Describes the life and times of the forensic pathologist and coroner Vincent DiMaio using examples of case studies conducted during his career and afterward when he was called as an expert witness. Addresses the findings in several high-profile cases, including the death of Trayvon Martin, the identity of the man in Lee Harvey Oswald's grave (yes; it really was him) and Vincent van Gough (no, it wasn't suicide, just a stupid accident), as well as less famous cases. Easy, entertaining read with an careful, but not stomach-turning description of the methods, the conditions of the bodies, and the contributions of entire teams of researchers with expertise in everything from gunshot residue to dentition.
