5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource, June 16, 2000
By A Customer
A must for anyone studying for a Bar exam or law school Evidence or Trial Advocacy course. This concise explanation of evidence rules succeeds where most law professors fail in making the abstract federal rules accessible and memorizable.

2.0 out of 5 stars Barely OK, March 31, 2007
By Andrea Pacelli (New York, NY, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am a big E&E fan and I would give 4 or 5 stars to most books in the series, but I'm not going to give this one more than 2 stars. The introductory text that precedes the examples is way too long. The chapter on examination of witnesses has 24 pages of text before giving a single example!!! Compare to most other E&E books, which have no more than 2-10 pages of introductory text before getting into the examples. Also, I am no law professor, but I found the presentation of topics a little confusing. The explanation of the hearsay rule is very different from the one that my prof gave in class (and the prof actually drafted some of the federal rules of evidence - I am assuming he is the one who's got it right!!). Finally most examples are really easy and not that useful except as a quick review. The best thing about this book is that it's pretty short and can be used to get an idea of the subject before moving on to a more complete study aid or casebook.
I have the 5th edition of the book - I hope the 6th (which I believe is just out) is better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simplicity in a world of complexity, November 29, 2006
By Jennifer Allison (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the best study guide I found for evidence because it doesn't go on and on. You could read a few pages at a time, when you have a few moments, and you won't get overwhelmed. In the world of law school reading that doesn't happen very often. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
