Evidence in Focus: A Practitioner’s Approach teaches the Federal Rules from a practicing lawyer’s perspective, illustrates their role within the context of litigation, and gives due consideration to how judges apply the rules in reaching a decision. Fascinating cases narrate the trials of intriguing characters and breathe life into legal theory. Approachable writing, clear explanations, and real-world hypothetical problems enliven class discussion and develop students' critical thinking skills. Humor, references to popular culture, and links to audio or video clips keep students engaged in learning the Rules of Evidence.

Designed to be accessible, every chapter breaks down each rule into its component parts, explaining: 1) how each part functions separately, 2) how each part integrates with the remaining text of the rule, and 3) how the text of the rule fits into the overall structure of the Rules of Evidence. The Introduction provides helpful overviews of the foundational principles of the Rules of Evidence, and of how criminal and civil cases arrive at trial.

While on their face the rules may appear to have a neutral application, they cannot be divorced from the historical period from which they emerged, or from the interests of the segment of society that wrote them. Evidence in Focus: A Practitioner’s Approach examines how some common law principles and their lingering presence within the Rules have created inequities in the civil and criminal trial system.
