This coursebook provides a systematic comparison of the Evidence Code’s and Federal Rules’ approaches to admissibility. Transcripts of witness examinations help students visualize the process of presenting and objecting to evidence. The book combines the problem and witness examination approach with text, not cases, that sets out the law of evidence in a clear and concise manner. It discusses major cases and the policies and concepts underlying the rules, not just the rules themselves. The end of each chapter includes the text of the code sections and rules discussed in that chapter. A teacher's manual is available to adopting professors.

Peregrinos de Aztlán es una de las novelas chicanas mas reconocidas; ha servido como fuente para una veintena de tesis doctores en los Estados Unidos, Francia, Alemania, Italia y México. La Bilingual Press/Editorial Bilingue se complace en presentar esta edición definitiva como parte de nuestra Clásico Chicanos. Como muchos críticos han afirmado, Peregrinos de Aztlán es una de las novelas claves de la literatura chicana. Sin embargo, esta obra ha sufrido la trayectoria editorial penosa que caracteriza casi toda nuestra literatura. Escrita por el autodidacta y ahora profesor distinguido de la Universidad de Arizona Miguel Méndez, la novela fue publicada por el mismo autor en 1974 y por varios años distribuida desde su casa. A pesar de su nacimiento singular, Peregrinos de Aztlán se ha mostrado extraordinariamente duradera y ha sido sumamente bien recibida por lectores y críticos. Con un sentimiento de gran reverencia nos complacemos en facilitar un hogar permanente a esta obra errante pero imprescindible para comprender la literatura y cultura chicanas. Ahora, seguros de su perpetuación en papel y tinta, se les permite a los personajes de esta hermosa épica el privilegio de un peregrinaje eterno en el mundo de la creación.

Evidence, A Concise Comparison of the Federal Rules with the California Code, 2016 (Selected Statutes)

The Seventh Edition of this casebook provides a systematic comparison of the Evidence Code’s and Federal Rules’ approaches to admissibility of evidence. Transcripts of witness examinations help students visualize the process of presenting and objecting to evidence. The book combines the problem and witness examination approach with text, not cases, that sets out the law of evidence in a clear and concise manner. It discusses major cases and the policies and concepts underlying the rules, not just the rules themselves. The end of each chapter includes the text of the code sections and rules discussed in that chapter. Changes from the Sixth Edition include: (1) Significant revisions of the Questions and Problems to eliminate true-false questions and replace them with real-life hypotheticals that give students an opportunity to argue for and against the admission of specific items of evidence; (2) Reductions in the text regarding the role of 1982’s Proposition 8 to reflect the reality that it has made only a few changes in the admissibility of evidence in criminal cases; (3) Revisions of the sections involving Specific Conduct for Non-Character Purposes, to better illustrate the difficulties in using uncharged offenses that are similar to the charged offenses; (4) Division of the Chapter on Impeachment of the Credibility of Witnesses to make it more manageable to teach and less daunting to explore; (5) Inclusion of recent developments limiting the use of hearsay by expert witnesses; and (6) Restructuring of the chapters on privileges by eliminating redundant material and grouping similar privileges together in one chapter, thus reducing the number of chapters on privileges from 11 to 6.
