Riassunto

Excerpt from Personal Identification: Methods for the Identification of Individuals, Living or Dead

In this is seen the mission of the present book. It attempts to lay before the reader all known methods of personal identification, including, of course, the system of measurements inaugurated by M. Bertillon, and the now famous system of finger prints devised by Sir Francis Galton and put into actual use by Sir E. R. Henry. It also introduces two new methods, those based upon the friction-skin configuration of the palm of the hand and the sole of the foot, which, although their possibilities have been previously exploited in technical journals, appear here for the first time in practical form for general use.
