"In these terrific volumes many of the world’s most renowned eyewitness-memory researchers describe the state of the science in a wide variety of domains….they should appeal to a wide audience, from cognitive and social psychologists to legal scholars to those working on the front lines of forensics and the courts." - D. Stephen Lindsay, University of Victoria, Canada

"The Handbook of Eyewitness Psychology provides two authoritative volumes by leaders in this field of research. The volumes concentrate on Memory for Events (I) and Memory for People (II), providing thorough coverage of a huge range of topics. This is an important work, and it belongs on the shelves not only of psychologists interested in these topics, but also in police departments and in the offices of judges, prosecutors and defense lawyers. The issues surrounding eyewitness testimony are crucial in the criminal justice system and the current pair of volumes provides complete, authoritative and timely contributions." - Henry L. Roediger, III, Washington University in St. Louis, USA

"These are landmark and long overdue volumes…every law enforcement official, every forensic expert, every judge, every criminal and civil trial lawyer will need to have a copy of them on their bookshelves." - Neil Vidmar, Duke University, School of Law, USA

"In the last 30 years researchers around the world have conducted thousands of studies designed to increase our understanding of eyewitness psychology. Indeed, this is one of the ‘hottest’ topics in the whole of psychology. Yet in the last ten years very few comprehensive overviews of this increasingly large topic have been published, even though it is of great interest not only to psychologists but to lawyers, police officers and many other professionals…This Handbook provides very exciting and extremely comprehensive yet detailed reviews of dozens of highly relevant issues. The chapter authors are the leading experts in the world, drawn from several countries. No other books on this crucial topic have been so substantial. It is a ‘must read’ for anybody with an interest in eyewitnesses." - Ray Bull, University of Leicester, UK

"To Tell the Truth and Nothing but the Truth... It's Terrific! ... an exhilaratingly satisfying and extremely valuable work that should be in every research library and in the personal book collection of anyone interested in eyewitness psychology or other practical applications of how people remember social events and the people involved in them... a thorough, expert, and well-written compendium of the field." - Maureen O'Sullivan, PsycCRITIQUES

"...a splendid two-volume survey of the state of the art of contemporary eyewitness research... These immaculately edited volumes are a treasure house of contemporary forensic research and thinking which no researcher or serious student of psychology and law can afford to neglect." - Graham Davies, University of Leicester, UK
