"The good news for readers of Problem Solving Courts is that the various chapters are well written without the abrupt changes in style sometimes experienced in edited volumes. Whether for an upper level undergraduate or a graduate student with an interest in psychology and the law or for professionals in the field, a clear picture of the rationales for problem solving courts and of generic implications for practice-psychological, social, legal-is provided."
