Review:
"Overall, I think that Wrightsman, Nietzel, and Fortune is the best book available for teaching a cross-section of undergraduates about the basics of psychology and law . . . . The text does a good job at bringing psychology students 'up to speed' on the basics of the legal system. One commendable feature of the book is the appropriate integration of real-world examples."
