This textbook from Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by Dr. Rajesh Bardale, written for MBBS students studying forensic medicine and toxicology (न्यायालयिक चिकित्सा एवं विष विज्ञान). It is prepared as per the Competency-Based Medical Education Curriculum of the NMC. Its highlights, as set out on the cover, are that multiple choice questions, short answer questions and long answer questions are included; that it carries 400+ colour photographs, flowcharts and boxes; that a new topic on AETCOM has been added; and that it incorporates amended Acts such as the Medical Termination of Pregnancy (Amendment) Act 2021. The emphasis on colour photography is worth noting in this subject specifically — forensic medicine is a visual discipline in which a student must learn to recognise patterns of injury, postmortem change and poisoning presentation, and a text carrying over four hundred colour images teaches that recognition in a way line drawings cannot. The inclusion of all three question formats — MCQs for entrance-style testing, SAQs and LAQs for the university written paper — means the same volume serves both the professional examination and later revision. AETCOM content is included as the CBME curriculum requires, and the statutory material has been kept current with recent amendments. The cover carries a DigiNerve QR code giving access to video lectures, notes and self-assessment material. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.

जेपी ब्रदर्स मेडिकल पब्लिशर्स द्वारा प्रकाशित 'Principles of Forensic Medicine & Toxicology' का यह चौथा संस्करण डॉ. राजेश बरदाले द्वारा लिखा गया है। यह पुस्तक NMC के कॉम्पिटेंसी-बेस्ड मेडिकल एजुकेशन (CBME) पाठ्यक्रम के अनुसार तैयार की गई है। इसकी प्रमुख विशेषताएँ हैं — बहुविकल्पीय प्रश्न (MCQs), लघु उत्तरीय प्रश्न (SAQs) तथा दीर्घ उत्तरीय प्रश्न (LAQs) का समावेश; 400 से अधिक रंगीन छायाचित्र, फ़्लोचार्ट एवं बॉक्स; AETCOM पर नया विषय; तथा गर्भ का चिकित्सकीय समापन (संशोधन) अधिनियम 2021 जैसे संशोधित अधिनियमों का समावेश। इस विषय में रंगीन छायाचित्रों की बहुलता विशेष रूप से महत्त्वपूर्ण है, क्योंकि फोरेंसिक मेडिसिन एक दृश्य-आधारित विषय है जिसमें विद्यार्थी को चोटों के प्रकार, शव में होने वाले परिवर्तन तथा विषाक्तता के लक्षण पहचानने आते हों — यह क्षमता रेखाचित्रों से नहीं, वास्तविक छायाचित्रों से ही विकसित होती है। तीनों प्रकार के प्रश्नों के समावेश से यह पुस्तक विश्वविद्यालय परीक्षा तथा MCQ-आधारित परीक्षण — दोनों के लिए उपयोगी है। साथ में DigiNerve के माध्यम से वीडियो लेक्चर, नोट्स एवं स्व-मूल्यांकन सामग्री भी उपलब्ध है। ध्यान दें: यह पुस्तक पूर्णतः अंग्रेज़ी भाषा एवं रोमन लिपि में है, हिन्दी में नहीं।
