Reviews
Brodsky has done it again. Nobody writes with more simple elegance and clarity about complicated and sophisticated issues in psychology and law. As the art and science of trial consultation matures, this book marks a true developmental milestone. - Joel A. Dvoskin, past president, American Psychology-Law Society; Department of Psychiatry, University of Arizona, USA One of the few books to present an overview of important techniques available to trial consultants from both a practical and research perspective. Brodsky does what he does best, combining research knowledge, practical experience, and personal insights in a concise, focused style. The combination of case examples and detailed descriptions of techniques and practices makes this book a user-friendly and valuable read. - Nancy L. Ryba, Department of Psychology, California State University, Fullerton, USA The most thoughtful and insightful book about trial consultation that I have ever read. This book is both approachable and scholarly, anecdotal and analytical. It gives the reader new understandings of the full range of substantive issues about which a trial consultant must develop expertise, and does so with humor, humility, and passion. For those interested in this important topic, this is 'must' reading. - Michael L. Perlin, Director, International Mental Disability Law Reform Project and Online Mental Disability Law Program, New York Law School, USA
