Summary | "The Science of Fingerprints: Classification and Uses" is a scientific publication prepared by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, likely written during the mid-20th century. The booklet is aimed at law enforcement officers and agencies, providing guidance on fingerprint identification, including its classification and comprehensive usage in criminal justice and beyond. It underscores the significance of fingerprinting not only in criminal identification but also in civil matters, portraying its critical role in effective law enforcement. The opening of the work introduces the foundational aspects of fingerprint science, emphasizing the importance of a centralized system for fingerprint identification established by the FBI. It discusses the historical development of fingerprinting and outlines its dual applications: criminal identification and humanitarian uses, such as identifying missing persons. Additionally, it highlights the inherent uniqueness of fingerprints, affirming their reliability compared to older methods of identification. The text sets the stage for subsequent detailed discussions on various types of fingerprint patterns, their classification, and practical applications within law enforcement.
