Reviews

...does exactly what it sets out to do. That is, it provides an up-to-date summary of the existing literature, informs the reader of the current views and recommended practices, and suggests new directions for 'anyone involved in elucidating, interpreting, and reporting the memories of others....a worthy addition to the bookshelves of academics and professionals interested in forensic interviews....the sort of book to be kept at hand, to refer back to again and again. Students studying memory accuracy and distortion will also find this volume an invaluable shortcut to learning the theories on applied human memory... -The Clinical Psychologist This book is readable and is broken down into 18 easily digestible chapters....The book is comprehensive and balanced in its approach, covering both clinical and research aspects of studying memory and suggestibility. In summary, Memory and Suggestibility in Forensic the Interview is a valuable resource that will benefit mental health and other professionals seeking to learn more about memory and its controversial role in the courtroom. -Psychiatric Services ...a very valuable collection that will be of interest to practitioners as well as researchers. -Contemporary Psychology Written by a collection of leading scholars, Memory and Suggestibility in the Forensic Interview provides authoritative coverage of a topic that is both timely and important. I highly recommend this authoritative book to anyone interested in memory and its relation to the law. -Daniel P. Schacter, Ph.D. Professor of Psychology, Harvard University; Author, The Seven Sins of Memory: H A rich and diverse walk through the complexities and controversies of traumatic memories. Eisen, Quas, and Goodman bring together a balanced selection of clinical and research chapters that will serve the needs of practitioners and scholars seeking to define the limits of practice and current knowledge. -Frank W. Putnam, M.D. Professor of Pediatrics and Child Psychiatry, University of Cincinnati Sometimes you bowl a strike; sometimes a spare; more often you leave pins standing. With this volume, Mitch Eisen, Jodi Quas, and Gail Goodman bowled a strike. This is a superb analysis of the complex subject of forensic interviewing. -John E.B. Myers, Ph.D., J.D. Professor of Law, University of the Pacific
