"This book was made because of some changes in the legal field. An Oregon statute requires an accused to prove his defense of insanity beyond a reasonable doubt, a familiar concept in an unfamiliar setting. The Supreme Court enunciates the McNabb doctrine for the admission of confessions in the federal courts. The Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure are promulgated. The American LawInstitute recommends that adultery no longer be a criminal offense. The Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia discards the time-honored right-and-wrong and irresistible impulse tests for insanity. About two-thirds of the present work relates to the law of criminal evidence in general; about one-third relates to evidence in connection with specific crimes. New chapters have been added on scientific detection devices, self-incrimination, and tax fraud cases, and the text and footnotes of the other chapters have been brought up to date."

"Although there are many texts on the law of evidence, surprisingly few are devoted specifically to the comparative and international aspects of the subject. The traditional view that the law of evidence belongs within the common law tradition has obscured the reality that a genuinely cosmopolitan law of evidence is being developed in criminal cases across the common law and civil law traditions. By considering the extent to which a coherent body of common evidentiary standards is being developed in both domestic and international jurisprudence, John Jackson and Sarah Summers chart this development with particular reference to the jurisprudence on the right to a fair trial that has emerged from the European Court of Human Rights and to the attempts in the new international criminal tribunals to fashion agreed approaches towards the regulation of evidence."
