...an excellent collection of chapters from experts in the area of memory and law. The chapters are written in a highly accessible way and provide up-todate reviews of the literature that would appeal to a broad audience of readers interested in issues surrounding memory and law. The authors make a point to offer concrete suggestions, where possible, for the application of psychological research to real-world legal contexts, and many authors provide applied examples from legal decisions and court transcripts to support empirical points. Many of the chapters also include suggestions for future research directions that have the potential to help focus the efforts of researchers to address the pressing issues in this field of study.
