Taylor's Principles and Practice of Medical Jurisprudence (Tenth Edition, Vol. II)

This item is identified as Volume II of "Taylor's Principles and Practice of Medical Jurisprudence," specifically the Tenth Edition. The book appears to be hardbound with a dark-colored, likely dark green or black, cover material. The title and other descriptive text on the spine are embossed or hot-stamped in gold lettering, which is characteristic of older, more formal publications. The visible text includes "TAYLOR'S PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE," "VOL. II," "TENTH EDITION," and what appears to be the authors' or editors' names, "SYDNEY SMITH" and "FAY J. COOK." The overall condition of the book, as visible in the dimly lit image, suggests it is well-preserved for its apparent age, with the spine appearing relatively intact and the gold lettering still legible, though some light wear or rubbing might be present given the age the style implies. There are no obvious tears, significant scuffs, or major damage visible. The book's construction, while not fully discernible, appears substantial, indicating a quality binding for a reference text of this nature. This particular volume would have been a significant academic or professional resource in the field of forensic medicine, likely dating from the early to mid-20th century, given the conventional publishing practices for such scholarly works.
