It presents to its readers a simple and lucid explanation of all the details involved in the classification and filing of fingerprints. More important from the investigator's' point of view, is the intensive and extensive treatment of latent fingerprint impressions found at crime scenes. The book also includes a general description of the Vucetich system of fingerprint classification; brief outlines of the majority of the fingerprint system of identification, both foreign and domestic, and a concise outline of the history and biological significance of fingerprints.''
