More About the Author
Product Description
Review
An important book about a critical question. New York Times Book Review Loftus is a quiet, sincere, and reliable guide to this important research and its applications. Times Higher Education Supplement
Product Description
This study makes the psychological case against the reliability of the eyewitness. By shedding light on the many factors that can intervene and create inaccurate testimony, Elizabeth Loftus illustrates how memory can be radically altered by the way an eyewitness is questioned, and how new memories can be implanted and old ones changed in subtle ways. "Eyewitness Testimony" provides a counterpoint to today's theatrical reliance on eyewitnesss accounts in the media and should be required reading for trial lawyers, psychologists, jurors, and anyone who considers the prospect of confronting an eyewitness accusation in a court of law.

Save your money; buy the new book
7 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
Loftus has written tons of new material since her original book. To market old information at a bargain price just because her latest book is so expensive and hard to get doesn't serve the consumer. But it was my fault for falling into the trap. I didn't understand at the time of my order how much more information is now available.

This is a psych/law bible!
7 July 1998
Format:Paperback
Loftus's book is an excellent source for any memory and law questions that may arise. It is also extremely interesting for those who are new to the field. She talks all about mistaken identification due to eyewitness identification evidence. She is most definetly THE LEADING EXPERT in the field.
