This three volume work, updated by supplements, is an invaluable addition to the bookcase of the lawyer with an interest in litigation involving evidence from psychiatrists, psychologists or those in related fields. It provides a detailed overview of the methodology, terminology and techniques of the various practitioners the trial lawyer is likely to encounter, along with practical examples of cases concerning evidence from such witnesses. A supurb work of scholarship.

This three volume set is rich with valuable information and techniques for dealing with psychiatric and psychological testimony. I have reviewed a number of books and this is well worth the price. I will be using it for the first time in court in about 2 months. If you have any questions, or if you have used it yourself, E-mail me at ggoldshark@aol.com Also, if you are a psychologist or psychiatrist, let me know your thoughts, both good and bad, about the book.
