| Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology Aims & Objectives Hi, I am Professor Anil Aggrawal, Professor of Forensic Medicine at the Maulana Azad Medical College, New Delhi-110002. I am married to a professor of chemistry and have a son (born 1984). I am interested in interacting with people who are interested in forensic medicine, pathology and toxicology. My home address is S-299 Greater Kailash-1, New Delhi-110048, India. My phone numbers are 29235460 and 29243101. My Email is dr_anil@hotmail.com I have always felt that forensic personnel are very creative. They write a lot, and often want to share their experiences with other persons of their profession. Sadly however only a limited number of journals are being published which solely cater to articles on forensic medicine and toxicology. A number of times, a little but useful experience of a forensic pathologist or toxicologist can not be converted into a valid paper, yet that experience could be very useful for the rest of us. A minor technique, a minor incision, which a forensic pathologist has discovered or found useful in his experience may not always be possible to be converted into a paper, yet could be very useful to the rest of us, if we had a means to know about that experience. For a long time, I had acutely felt the need for a forum, where such experiences could be shared. Internet provides a very good answer to the above problem. Now forensic personnel do not have to look anywhere to have their experiences, their statistical data and even proper full length papers (even with color photographs!) published. They can have them hosted here on the internet on this site. With the coming of the internet, I conceived the idea of an Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology to address these problems. Although mainly started with the above mentioned intentions, now the input of papers from all parts of the world has increased so much, that we are including proper full length papers too in this internet journal , even with color photographs. We have enough space on this website, and thus there are virtually no constraints. The paper could be lengthy (if the author feels his ideas can not be put across in shorter length), can have virtually unlimited number of photographs (which can be hosted in color!) and so on. This journal has only an electronic existence, and their is no corresponding journal on paper. In this respect, this journal probably has the honor of being the first of its kind in the world. This journal is being visited by several people daily, who not only read the papers, but add their own experiences related to the paper in the guest books maintained at the bottom of each paper. Thus with time, the experiences of several people on a given subject accumulate, and each one of us can benefit from the collected wisdom of all of us. Best of all, you can mention these papers in your CVs as they have the same validity as any other paper in a traditionally printed journal. These papers can be included as references by your peers in their own papers, monographs, chapters, books or encyclopaedias. To see how these papers can be sited, please visit any paper and see its reference at the top. If you have an interesting forensic paper (or experience), you may want to send it (and related photos if there are any) to me both by E-mail and by ordinary snail mail. Please scan the pictures at 300 dpi. Don't worry if you are uncomfortable at scanning pictures. Simply send the pictures to me by ordinary mail, and I will scan them for you. For ordinary mail, please use the following address. Professor Anil Aggrawal (Editor-in-Chief) Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology S-299 Greater Kailash-1 New Delhi-110048 India Books for review must be submitted at the above address. The journal is now also available on CD-ROM, with many more additional features.

| Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology Contributing Partners Gyan Fernando Gyan Fernando, MB, BS, MD, FRCPath, DMJHome Office Pathologist Devon & Cornwall UK E-mail Dr. Fernando Dr. Gyan Fernando was born in Colombo, Sri Lanka (then Ceylon) in 1949. His early education was in a Catholic school and in 1968 he entered the Faculty of Medicine, University of Ceylon, Colombo. Extra curricular activities, notably editing the student "rag" was more important to him than studies. This led to failing Anatomy and Biochemistry. He never failed another examination. However, he considers the five years spent in medical school to have been the best years of his life. In 1973, to the relief of his parents, he qualified as a doctor. Soon afterwards he got married to Ranji, a fellow medical student. He is still married to her. Because of living well away from their parents, the marriage survived the first few crucial years and a son was born in 1976. After a short spell in general medical and obstetric jobs he opted for Forensic Medicine purely because no one wanted the forensic job in a remote but beautiful part of the country where he wanted to live. In 1978 he moved to Britain where he soon discovered that training in Forensic Medicine did not exist. Wisely he decided on Histopathology and in 1984 obtained Membership of the Royal College of Pathologist by examination. (Later, "having furthered the interests of the College" without getting into trouble, he was made a Fellow.) In 1985 he obtained the Diploma in Medical Jurisprudence and was appointed the Senior Forensic Pathologist to the University of Dundee and very soon took over as caretaker head of department. In 1989 he was appointed Senior Lecturer in Forensic Medicine, University of Edinburgh. At present he is the Home Office appointed Consultant Forensic Pathologist for Devon and Cornwall in which post he has been in since 1993. As a firm believer that "autopsy" means "seeing for oneself" and not gathering knowledge from books, he has always been a hands-on pathologist and has very little respect for academics. Another of his pet dislikes is bureaucracy. Over the years he has surrounded himself with books mostly of humorous and satirical writing, favourite authors being P.G.Woodhouse and James Thurber. He also has a fondness for cartoons. Since his school days he has been interested in railways and combines holiday travel with study of railways. Ramesh Kaul Ramesh Kaul, MD., MS., FCCP USA E-mail Dr. Kaul Dr. Ramesh Kaul was born and brought up in India, where he qualified in medicine and surgery from the prestigious All India Institute of Medical Sciences. Later he obtained his post-doctoral qualification in otorhinolaryngology from the same institute. A man of many interests and tastes, he is widely known among his peers as the modern Leonardo da Vinci. He is Board Certified in Pulmonary Medicine, and is currently working as a pulmonologist in the US. His several fields of interest include investigations into metabotropic receptors. He runs his own sites on lung cancer. Among his best known and widely respected sites are www.thorax.us and www.lungcancercare.com and www.rameshkaul.com . He lives in Pittsburgh and New Castle.

Book Review Journal Aims & Objectives This journal has been started by Dr Anil Aggrawal, Professor of Forensic Medicine at the Maulana Azad Medical College, New Delhi - 110002. Dr. Aggrawal is quite keen to interact with people who are interested in books. Dr. Aggrawal adores books and literally thrives on them. Though being a medical doctor specializing in forensic medicine, he loves books on all subjects encompassing such diverse ranges from astronomy and zoology to paleontology, history, occult science, philosophy, mathematics, and classical literature, et al. His penchant for books was conceived quite early in life. Even as a three year old he always pined for books instead of toys-as his siblings did. There is a legend about the Greek mathematician and engineer Archimedes (ca. 287 B.C. - ca. 212 B.C.). When Roman armies sacked Syracuse in 212 B.C. he was busy studying a geometrical figure made in sand. When a Roman soldier commanded him to come along, he motioned to him imperiously, "Don't disturb my circles". The soldier felt so insulted that he killed Archimedes on the spot! In a similar situation Dr. Aggrawal would probably say, "Don't disturb my books!" Writers and thinkers have always been his idols. Some of the people who have inspired him are (i)Lord Buddha (he remains first on his list) (ii)Albert Einstein (iii)Robert James Fischer (The only American who has been an official World Chess Champion) and (iv)Isaac Asimov (he wrote close to 500 books, and is reputed to be the only author to have published books in all ten categories of the Dewey Decimal System! Oh, well, we all know it's not true, but he has really written so widely, it seems cruel to challenge this statement.) Aggrawal is no Asimov, but like him, he loves writing books. He has written nine books so far (till 2006 end). Four of them are quiz books, which reflect his morbid passion for quizzes. The books, in order they were published are (i) 1000 Crime Quiz (published 30 March 1992) (ii)1000 Love & Sex Quiz (published 13 August 1992) (iii) Some Common Ailments (Published 27 January 1993)(iv)The Book of Medicine (Published 5 February 1994) (v)Narcotic Drugs (Published on 2 May 1995) (vi) 1000 Biology Quiz (Published on 29 August 1995) (vii)Modern Diagnostics (Published on 8 March 2001) (viii) Health Quiz Book (Published on 5 August 2002) (ix) Self Assessment and review of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology (the first book related to his profession). And since we all love statistics, here is a detailed statistics of these books. Here they are: S. no.

Why is Dr. Aggrawal interested in writing book reviews? Whenever he reads a book he tries to discover its strong points. There is a subconscious effort on his part perhaps, to incorporate those points in his own writings. He then wants to share his findings with everyone. In the year 2000, he started an Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology , and out of his sheer interest in books, he included a book review section to it. The unprecedented popularity of the review section took him by complete surprise. He received books from authors and publishers in thousands. And they belonged to all subjects-not only forensic medicine and toxicology, which he had intended at the inception of the above journal. With time he and his group realized that they must conjure another journal devoted solely to Book Reviews for books of all genre. In this all-new journal they would accommodate all kinds of books, and hence the present Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Book Reviews . Dr. Aggrawal fondly cites the examples of many regular journals (not devoted to book reviews), which have come out with issues especially devoted to book reviews. One pertinent example is Archives of Sexual Behavior , which came out with an issue (Volume 28, Number 5 / October, 1999, pages 377-467) especially devoted to book reviews in 1999.

Book Review Journal Book Review Policy Reviews of Forensic Books/Journals/Software/Multimedia SPREADING AWARENESS The journal strives to spread awareness about the latest forensic literature among the forensic professionals of the world. Every month tens of new books related to forensic sciences and allied subjects are published, but it takes a while before forensic professionals become aware of them. In several cases, they just remain unaware of these publications throughout. I have been personally handicapped by several such instances. I will tell you just one. In 1998, I went to Bijapur (a historical city in Karnataka State in India), to take a guest lecture, and as is my wont, was thumbing through their library books in my spare time. I was amazed to see a nice biography of Thomas Noguchi published sometime in the late seventies. It gave some of his best cases (among them the murder of Dorothy Stratten, Playboy Playmate of August 1979, who was killed by her lover Paul Snider, when she was six months short of her twenty-first birthday. I had been searching for the details of this murder investigation for quite sometime without any success!). I was completely unaware of this book for all these years , and would have given a fortune to possess this book, but alas, the book was already out of print. What pained (and annoyed) me most was that I have been frantically buying books since late sixties, and had I been aware of the existence of this book at the time it was published, I would have done anything to acquire it - even if it would have entailed writing to the publishers overseas. As I pined for this book (and several others - "Pathology of Homicide" by Adelson is another, "Guinness Book of Crime", which I saw at the British Council Library in New Delhi another, "Poisons, Antidotes and Anecdotes" by William Tichy (Sterling Pub. Comp., New York, N.Y., 1977) still another - the list is endless), I became acutely aware that there should be some surefire and foolproof system by which forensic professionals could become aware of important publications soon after they came in existence. We have been running this very successful Internet Journal for quite sometime now. This has become a sine qua non for most professionals around the world (its beauty is that unlike most other online journals, it is available free online to all), and they turn back often to this journal to see what is the latest happening here. And we at the Journal office decided that it would be best to use this journal as a forum to spread awareness. We wrote to several authors and publishers and the response was amazing. We received books from them regularly and as they came in we got down to scanning them, sorting them, describing them. As can be seen, our reviews are radically different from those appearing in most "Paper journals". We give the front and back cover in high color resolution, and also some of the key diagrams, contents, tables etc in full color, which can be enlarged further at the command of the viewer. The idea is to make the reader feel as if he is himself thumbing through the book, and can take an intelligent decision regarding it. We also began reviewing other items related to forensic medicine (Software, Multimedia, Journals). With time, this section also became really valuable for our readers. Encouraged by the response to reviews of Professional Publications, software and multimedia, we took to reviews of popular books on crime too. Again we wrote to several authors and publishers and again the response was encouraging. I think if somebody had been running such a journal twenty years back, all of us would have had much more books in our collection than we have now (I Certainly would have had Thomas Noguchi's book!). But better late than never! (The journal accepts important books, journals, software and multimedia (VHS, CDs, DVDs) related to Forensic Science, Forensic Medicine, Toxicology, Criminology and Allied subjects for extensive reviews. Both technical and general books are reviewed in separate sections. The journal is visited not only by Forensic Professionals from all over the world, but also by general public exploring subjects related to mystery, crime, suspense, intrigue, supernatural and horror. The reviews are usually hosted within two weeks an item is received at the journal office. For more details please visit our FAQ section.)

The idea is to make the reader feel as if he is himself thumbing through the book, and can take an intelligent decision regarding it. We also began reviewing other items related to forensic medicine (Software, Multimedia, Journals). With time, this section also became really valuable for our readers. Encouraged by the response to reviews of Professional Publications, software and multimedia, we took to reviews of popular books on crime too. Again we wrote to several authors and publishers and again the response was encouraging. I think if somebody had been running such a journal twenty years back, all of us would have had much more books in our collection than we have now (I Certainly would have had Thomas Noguchi's book!). But better late than never! (The journal accepts important books, journals, software and multimedia (VHS, CDs, DVDs) related to Forensic Science, Forensic Medicine, Toxicology, Criminology and Allied subjects for extensive reviews. Both technical and general books are reviewed in separate sections. The journal is visited not only by Forensic Professionals from all over the world, but also by general public exploring subjects related to mystery, crime, suspense, intrigue, supernatural and horror. The reviews are usually hosted within two weeks an item is received at the journal office. For more details please visit our FAQ section.)
