This edition, the first since the Supreme Court's decision in Crawford v. Washington (2004), presents the material on confrontation and hearsay in a dramatically reorganized manner that emphasizes basic concepts and greatly reduces the time spent on a march through the hearsay exceptions. It also includes for the first time a chapter focusing on a topic made especially salient by recent developments, the treatment of observations by children. The book presents straightforward explanations and problems, many of them drawn from actual cases, designed to make assignments short and class preparation efficient for students and teachers.
