Abstract
A review of document examination over the last twenty years My career in forensic science starts, very appropriately, in this city of Nottingham where I was working as a research biologist at the University's School of Agriculture. Having always had a passion for detective literature I begged a visit to the Forensic Science Laboratory tucked away behind the Police station in the city centre. What I saw and heard there persuaded me to fill in the application form for the post of biologist at the Nottingham Forensic Science Laboratory. Fate, however, intervened and my future husband informed me that he was moving to take up a post at Kings College in London. So instead of looking to the Nottingham Laboratory I wrote to the Metropolitan Police Forensic Science Laboratory (MPFSL) to enquire if there were any vacancies. The reply from Dr Williams informed me that he had more than enough biologists but they had a vacancy for a forensic document examiner if I cared to apply. I have to say he didn't sound very encouraging.
