A Guide to Facial Recognition. 

Penry was the inventor of the 'Photo-Fit' technique of enabling witnesses to create accurate facial images which the British police adopted in 1970, a standard tool of the police for many years.

A facial composite is a graphical representation of one or more eyewitnesses' memories of a face, as recorded by a composite artist. Facial composites are used mainly by police in their investigation of (usually serious) crimes. These images are used to reconstruct the suspect's face in hope of identifying them.

Hardcover with dust jacket, this item published in 1971 is in great condition.
