The trial of a sexual offence requires not only a legal but also a certain amount of medical knowledge. The author has very succinctly dealt with both these aspects in this book. The substantive law, together with essential practice and procedure points, has been laid down and commented upon with the help of decided cases. How medical evidence is to be dealt with, is also explained.
A glossary of 'Legal, Medical and Technical Terms' included in the book gives a clear, yet concise, explanation of the terms. The explanations will be easily understood by practitioners of both the disciplines.
The book will be found invaluable by all those involved with such medico-legal cases, including lawyers, judges, doctors and the police, etc.
