Publisher Synopsis
"The Miranda Ruling: Its Past, Present, and Future is not only a useful primer for people unfamiliar with Miranda's antecedents and progeny, but it also makes a significant contribution to the literature by explicitly applying psychological expertise to understanding how Miranda came to be and how this decision has shaped interrogation practices...Lawyers wishing to augment their legal understanding of voluntariness with an introduction to the psychological literature pertinent to whether a confessor was coerced will, therefore, also find this work helpful. Graduate students interested in interrogation specifically or the accommodation of competing considerations within our justice system will also find it informative." --PsycCRITIQUES "The Miranda Ruling: Its Past, Present, and Future is not only a useful primer for people unfamiliar with Miranda's antecedents and progeny, but it also makes a significant contribution to the literature by explicitly applying psychological expertise to understanding how Miranda came to be and how this decision has shaped interrogation practices...Lawyers wishing to augment their legal understanding of voluntariness with an introduction to the psychological literature pertinent to whether a confessor was coerced will, therefore, also find this work helpful.
