Reviews

Suggestibility is one of the most important psychological concepts to capture the imagination of scientists, both past and present. The internationally known contributors to this volume tackle this concept with scientific astuteness and balance, and with an eye towards its importance for the legal field. It is a must read for researchers and practitioners alike.?Elizabeth F. Loftus, PhD, Distinguished Professor, University of California, Irvine
