This manual from Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by Dr. Dekal V, written as an examination preparation guide in forensic medicine and toxicology (न्यायालयिक चिकित्सा एवं विष विज्ञान) for MBBS undergraduate students. Its purpose is stated plainly in its title. All the chapters are presented in a short and concise manner that is easy for students to understand; the book is written in accordance with the prescribed syllabus and is mainly focused towards examinations, so that anyone who reads it gains reasonable knowledge of the subject and is able to write appropriate answers to every question asked in the examinations. It is written in simple language and is intended as a preparatory guide rather than a full reference — which is why it is named an exam preparatory manual. Apart from theory, the common set of practical exercises adopted by most universities is also covered, so the book serves the needs of theory, practical and viva-voce examinations from a single volume. This fourth edition is prepared as per the revised Competency-Based Medical Education Curriculum of the NMC and, importantly for this subject, includes the latest criminal laws — BNS, BNSS and BSA — within the text. That matters more in forensic medicine than in any other subject: the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam replaced the Indian Penal Code, the Criminal Procedure Code and the Indian Evidence Act, so any manual predating that change teaches repealed sections. Dr. Dekal V, MD PGDMLE PhD (Criminology), is Professor and Head of the Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology at Meenakshi Medical College Hospital and Research Institute, Enathur, Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.

जेपी ब्रदर्स मेडिकल पब्लिशर्स द्वारा प्रकाशित 'Exam Preparatory Manual for Undergraduates: Forensic Medicine & Toxicology' का यह चौथा संस्करण डॉ. देकल वी (MD, PGDMLE, PhD क्रिमिनोलॉजी) द्वारा लिखा गया है, जो मीनाक्षी मेडिकल कॉलेज, कांचीपुरम में फोरेंसिक मेडिसिन एवं टॉक्सिकोलॉजी विभाग के प्रोफ़ेसर एवं विभागाध्यक्ष हैं। यह पुस्तक मुख्यतः परीक्षा की तैयारी के लिए बनाई गई है — इसमें सभी अध्याय संक्षिप्त एवं सरल रूप में प्रस्तुत किए गए हैं ताकि विद्यार्थी विषय को शीघ्र समझ सके और परीक्षा में पूछे गए प्रश्नों के उपयुक्त उत्तर लिख सके। सिद्धांत के साथ-साथ अधिकांश विश्वविद्यालयों में प्रचलित प्रायोगिक अभ्यास भी इसमें सम्मिलित हैं, अतः यह पुस्तक सिद्धांत, प्रायोगिक एवं वाइवा — तीनों परीक्षाओं की आवश्यकता पूरी करती है। यह संस्करण NMC के संशोधित CBME पाठ्यक्रम के अनुसार है और इसमें नए आपराधिक क़ानून — BNS, BNSS तथा BSA — पाठ में ही सम्मिलित किए गए हैं, जो इस विषय में विशेष रूप से महत्त्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि इन्होंने IPC, CrPC एवं भारतीय साक्ष्य अधिनियम का स्थान ले लिया है। ध्यान दें: यह पुस्तक पूर्णतः अंग्रेज़ी भाषा एवं रोमन लिपि में है, हिन्दी में नहीं।
