The authors integrate fascinating accounts of real trials, important cases, and other examples of the legal system in action to illustrate how research and theory can deepen our understanding of suspects, criminals, police officers, victims, lawyers, witnesses, judges, and jurors. This wide-ranging and consistently accessible text persuasively demonstrates the relevance of key research findings in social, cognitive, clinical, and developmental psychology to virtually every aspect of the legal system"--Back cover
