The authors of each chapter are a "Who's Who" of forensic psychology. This book presents the most up-to-date information on every important topic in the field, including evaluation methodology, case law, and research. I find that I refer to it regularly when writing reports, planning for testimony, and in my teaching. It is informative, practical, and interesting to read on its own.

This is the most comprehensive and user-friendly forensic psychology volume available. It has a wealth of information.

edited by goldstein and weiner, and written by premier experts in each niche of forensic psychology, i find it to be a (usually) fairly exhaustive review and analysis of the major topics in the field. all chapters are very well written, most are very readable. good abpp review book as well as general reference book. at $160, it's expensive, but, in my opinion, it was worth the price.

I love this book. It has madly informed me of the inside information of the forensic psychology world.

I learned about this book at a conference. It's by far the most up-to-date, thorough treatment of major topics in the field of forensic psychology. I find myself referring to it on a regular basis.

This book is an invaluable resource for all subjects within forensic psych, from child custody to competence to stand trial to voir dire to personal injury--27 different areas. Both the begining and experienced practitioner will find it immensely valauble. Every "big name" in the forensic psych field has authored a chapter.

this is book is "used" and it is in perfect shape~ i highly recommend user =)
