• One of Those Books
  Use it in law school and keep it around for a long time after. Keeper!

• A must-have
  This was a wonderful purchase. The information was very accessable and to-the-point. A good nuts-and-bolts resource for common evidentiary issues. A handy tool for busy attorneys. I wish I would have bought this the day I was given my law license.
  Highly recommended.

It serves as a terrific checklist, not only to learn the rules in law school, but to use them in the courtroom. An absolute must have.
  I also recommend Thomas Mauet's Fundamentals of Trial Techniques.
  It is lacking in the foundation for more current evidence -- e.g., emails, web pages, etc.

The examples are very helpful. The book is good... more info
