College Level Medical Courses

Sanantone jogged my memory. Great Courses also has a good course on substance abuse and the brain. On edx I also took an excellent course on human anatomy from Harvard. Khan academy has some great anatomy resources as well, but the anatomy course does not show up in the main course menu. You have to do a search.

You can do Sophia anatomy one and two, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you learn very well just through reading a textbook (NinjaNerd is actually something I discovered when I was doing A&P on Sophia and hating it. I cannot speak highly enough about that resource.) If that's the case, then just using the OpenStax A & P should work just as well. The benefit of sophia, I found, with the opportunity to take virtual labs. When I have a Sophia membership, I usually take a lab or two in subjects I've already taken, just to learn and review the information in a different way.

I love The Great Courses. Their video courses are only about 12 hours, on average, which is faster than reading a textbook. They get the best instructors from around the country who are really good at explaining complex subjects. 

If someone wants a book on death investigations, the bible for the field is Medicolegal Investigation of Death: Guidelines for the Application of Pathology to Crime Investigation by Spitz and Fisher. Every medicolegal death investigator or detective should have this for referencing. Really, anyone who whose work involves forensic pathology should own this book, including forensic nurses and child/adult protective services caseworker.
