With extensive revisions and three completely new chapters, this timely update on expert witnessing includes the numerous changes in federal expert witness laws and admissibility that have been enacted since 2004. New chapters detail judicial interventions that impact experts, how juries actually decide cases based on expert witness testimony, and the practical and interesting topic of how to sue your attorney to get paid. The text also addresses issues stemming from societal changes, such as the CSI effect, social media, and the increasingly adversarial nature of the political culture-- Provided by publisher.
