    TLDR The book is a useful reference for forensic medicine with some areas needing expansion for multicultural relevance.
    The document reviews a book that emphasizes the importance of formal systems for ethical consultation in the UK healthcare system and a comprehensive forensic medicine textbook. The textbook is praised for its clear layout, informative content, and coverage of modern developments in forensic science, making it a recommended reference for medicolegal practitioners and exam candidates. It includes chapters on wound healing, sexuality, elder abuse, and related specialties such as anthropology and odontology. However, the review suggests that future editions could be improved by addressing certain omissions and expanding on topics like Shari'ah law to better serve multicultural societies.
