9.		True Witness: Cops, Courts, Science, and the Battle against Misidentification from Palgrave Macmillan Price: $16.47 Customer Review: Too much time spent on background of the players and their attempts to legitimize their theories.

14.		Trial Consulting (American Psychology-Law Society Series) from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $39.33 Customer Review: There is no lascivious behavior in this book.

18.		Witness Testimony Evidence: Argumentation and the Law from Cambridge University Press Price: $26.99 Customer Review: Professor Walton's book is not for the casual reader looking for a quick or easy introduction to witness testimony.
