The Law of Evidence, by David M. Paciocco and Lee Stuesser, is Canada's leading text in evidentiary law in both criminal and civil cases. For nearly two decades, it has been relied upon by judges, practitioners, and scholars both in the courtroom and in the classroom. In the newest edition of this frequently cited book, the authors continue their practice of organizing, explaining, and illustrating the law of evidence clearly, simply, and practically. The seventh edition provides authoritative analyses of new cases as well as a fresh or an expanded examination of the most important topics in evidentiary law.

"This practice-oriented sourcebook, authored by a seasoned lawyer with the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General and a Master of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, contains a comprehensive digest of Canadian evidence law. The book covers the law of evidence as applied in both civil and criminal proceedings, and captures general evidentiary principles contained in thousands of selected excerpts from case law and statutes, supplemented with authoritative commentary. By providing the key passages of actual cases and statutes (as opposed to a discussion of theory), this book serves as a practical research tool for students, litigators and adjudicators alike, well suited to the preparation of an opinion, argument or factum."--pub. desc.
