"I have no doubt that this new work, which covers seven years of judicial and legislative developments since the second edition in 2003, will be received with gratitude by the profession and students. I wish it the success which it deserves." ~ Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong

This book is a fundamental source of reference on the Law of Evidence and the Litigation Process for students, lawyers and judges. It offers detailed analysis on how the rules of evidence operate in civil and criminal practice and includes detailed statutory and case law references.

Apart from the comprehensive examination of the Evidence Act, Evidence and the Litigation Process (Third Edition) covers the new Criminal Procedure Code recently passed in May 2010 - the first book in the market to do so. Practitioners and students will find the comparative analysis of the Criminal Procedure Code 2010 and the Criminal Procedure Code (Cap 68, 1985 Rev Ed) particularly helpful. This book also discusses intensively the foundations of litigation, the selection and preparation of evidence, the opening statement, evidence-in-chief, cross-examination, re-examination, the closing address and the process at trial.

Practitioners and students will find this book extremely useful because it achieves a balance between analytical discussion and the practical application of the law, thus providing readers with an essential resource for their research.
