Summary: "Reports of Trials for Murder by Poisoning" by Browne and Stewart is a legal and scientific text written in the late 19th century.

It discusses the complexities of using chemical evidence in trials, especially when conflicting expert opinions arise regarding the toxicology and effects of different poisons.
