Last week Jurgen Bartsch, 21, was sentenced to life imprisonment for the four murders. On the stand, he not only admitted the killings and confessed attempts to abduct 70 other children, but also allowed that he had sought ab solution from a priest after attacking his first victim.

In less than a century, that science has developed from rule of thumb into an enormously intricate medico-legal discipline, and the story of its development, as described by Jurgen Thorwald (The Century of the Surgeon) with impressive literary and scientific competence, is a tale of blood and bloodhounds, wills and pills, pathologists and psychopaths. For sheer suspense and wallowing aceldama, it is worth a hundred whodunits...
