Although strong and relentless, Batman has no super powers. His "powers" are his Sherlock Holmes-like abilities of deduction and detection. Two dozen entries from Batman's "Case Files" are featured here. Most are written by Batman himself, but a couple are from Police Commissioner Gordon, and there are a couple of entries from the Batman's right hand man, Alfred the butler. Cases range from the puzzling to the bizarre, and feature such classic Batman villains as The Joker, Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Two-Face. Interspersed among the Case File reports are sidebars that focus on specific kinds of forensic science that Batman uses to solve his cases. These are brief and informative and allow readers to understand why a certain method of detection is chosen in a specific case. The basics of forensics are presented in a clear, brief, and informative manner.Moench, Doug is the author of 'Forensic Files of Batman The World's Greatest Detective', published 2004 under ISBN 9780743487320 and ISBN 074348732X.
