presents a wide range of realistic problems that help students better understand the depth and complexity of the Rules of Evidence

opens with a transcript from a real criminal law case that illustrates how evidence is admitted and excluded in practice

Be sure to notice these changes to the Fourth Edition:

integration of updated Rule amendments and case law, including Crawford v. Washington (confrontation clause) and its subsequent case applications, as well as significant developments in the use of expert testimony

new problems throughout the book represent a wide range of difficulty, from the basic principles of the Rules to more challenging policy issues
