- Summary:
- This revised second edition of a 2010 original publication examines the science behind the evidence in the John F. Kennedy assassination and adds a new voice to the chorus that has for nearly fifty years called the official handling of the case a conspiracy. The work covers topics such as the single bullet theory, witness testimony, medical evidence, acoustic analysis, the Zapruder film, and a two gunman theory. The work includes several black and white photos, illustrations and tables. Chambers is a physicist for the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC.
