This important new book demonstrates the significant limitations of the prevailing approach to the problems faced by vulnerable witnesses within the adversarial criminal process. Drawing upon modern psychological, socio-linguistic, and victimological study across common law jurisdictions, it provides a systematic critique of the special measures of the Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999.
