Customer Reviews

Essential resource

This book is an essential resource for any psychologist or other mental health professional who conducts evaluations when there is a disputed confession or a question concerning the competence to waive Miranda rights. It is an invaluable resource for criminal defense attorneys as well as for anyone who wants to understand coerced and nonvoluntary confessions. I recommend it highly.

Excellent, practical guide for forensic practitioners

This is simply the best book available on disputed confessions and the psychology of interrogations. The author provides a thorough but readable overview of models of interrogations and false confessions, as well as a practical guide to performing assessments in this growing area of forensic practice.
