This book was very informative and it answered a few questions I had previously. My main concern is it was published in 2007. I'm sure many things are different now. Also none of the examples mentioned were in the state I live in. I understand this book is for State side interpreters, but I would read a California precedent or Florida or... and wonder if it applied to me or if I should skip that area.
