    • Summary:"This book addresses a specific method of conducting cross-examination that was developed by the author Kyla Lee. The goal of the book is to use a series of common scenarios that can be addressed using Pinpoint Method to the success of the examiner. The method is taught through metaphor about pins and needles, to keep the interest of the reader while teaching the reader how to overcome problems and hurdles in cross-examination. Chapters are organized by the process: "threading the needle" as the setup chapter, "dancing on the head of a pin" as the ethics chapter, and so on. Chapters address the following: police witnesses, lay witnesses, expert witnesses, impeachment, proving misconduct, ethics, encountering lying witnesses, etc."-- Provided by publisher.
