Description

Book Synopsis
This book reviews the research on evidence provided by child eyewitnesses. It describes interviewing techniques to facilitate accurate recall and lineup techniques to facilitate accurate recognition.

Trade Review
What is particularly impressive about this book is that Pozzulo successfully makes the complex field of young eyewitness memory accessible to all readers while not short-shrifting the technical complexities.
* PsycCRITIQUES *
Pozzulo introduces this work in a straightforward and convincing manner—there are no gaps in following her logic. The reader is left with a clear sense of the problem, a firm appreciation for why the problem must be addressed, and, most importantly, absolute certainty that accuracy can be improved.
