Summary:	"Upon its initial publication, Children's Testimony garnered widespread acclaim as a valuable resource for academics and practitioners alike. The second edition reflects the substantial progress made in the field over the past decade and includes the results of ongoing international research. To ensure that information is topical and directly relevant to practitioners, the contributors include a range of internationally-recognized experts--psychologists, law enforcement representatives, lawyers, clinicians, expert witnesses, and experienced investigative interviewer trainers. The findings are presented in succinct, highly focused chapters to further enhance clarity and accessibility. The articles cover such topics as critical foundational information; issues pertaining to the cognitive, emotional, and developmental factors affecting children's ability to describe experiences are addressed; and a chronology of the relevant elements of an investigation from initial findings and meetings through post-interview review. The second edition of Children's Testimony is an essential resource for lawyers, judges, interviewers and investigators, expert witnesses, social workers, academics and researchers working in forensic contexts with the testimony of children"--Provided by publisher.
