LexisNexis

This one-volume softbound treatise provides clear and concise explanations for the application and practical effect of each Rule of Evidence--a valuable resource for any Evidence student. This treatise was recently cited as "the authoritative text" on federal evidence law (United States v. Schlesinger, 372 F. Supp. 2d 711, 720 (E.D.N.Y. 2005)). Annually supplemented and complete, this edition contains a careful examination of the most recent changes in the Federal Rules. This edition includes a detailed line-by-line summary and analysis of the newest Federal Rule of Evidence, Rule 502, which sets forth certain important new limitations on the waiver of the attorney-client privilege and work product protection. It also discusses the Supreme Court's latest decision in Kansas v. Ventris (2009), concerning the extent to which a witness may be impeached with prior inconsistent statements that were obtained in violation of witness's constitutional rights. And of course it includes an extensive discussion of four landmark Supreme Court decisions, Crawford v. Washington (2004), Davis v. Washington (2006), Whorton v. Bockting(2007), and Giles v. California (2008), which have completely rewritten the law governing the right of a criminal defendant to rely on the Confrontation Clause to obtain the exclusion of otherwise admissible hearsay.

Companions by Contract's author, famed former Law School Dean, and nationally renowned authority on the Law of Evidence, Glen Weissenberger, now brings his wit and decades of experience with cases “too true to be fiction” to his second novel: a romantic mystery thriller with an utterly unforeseeable ending, one packed with laugh-out-loud scenes!
 It’s an unorthodox contract. And those can prove deadly.
Craig North, the charismatic, wealthy managing partner of a prestigious Chicago law firm, seeks to hire a companion to provide him with platonic, pleasant camaraderie–and, as he repeatedly assures both his colleagues and himself, nothing more. So he is delighted when the refined and lovely law student Rebecca Bellow applies for the job.
With an executed contract explicitly prohibiting any form of romance between them, Rebecca happily settles into her private, beautiful apartment in North's Georgian mansion, even finding a Mercedes at her disposal.
And as the friendship between employer and companion warms over elegant dinners, animated conversations, and old movies, both think:
"This is just too good to be true!"
They’re right.
Suddenly and inexplicably, Rebecca becomes the target of an international organized crime syndicate.
North–not even an amateur sleuth–leaps in to save her and untangle this deadly mystery, putting his own life on the line. He enlists an eclectic collection of friends to help: Rebecca’s racy ex-roommate, a law school student as well-versed in seduction as jurisprudence; a down-on-his-luck private investigator with a penchant for liquor; even a cabal of vengeful of lawyers hatching a conspiracy against North.
As the murderous mob becomes more brazen, Rebecca and North’s feelings for one another deepen into a love clearly forbidden by their employment contract. But soon that becomes the least of their concerns: have these “Companions by Contract” entered into the deadliest agreement of their lives?
PLUS! A BONUS! Just in case you missed it … Chapter One of Glen’s fabulously fun, plot twisting, acclaimed first novel of romantic suspense, Made to Measure Man, which takes you on a race through ten life-upending days of a Law School Dean who somehow, inadvertently, gets both criminally–and romantically!–embroiled in an international art theft ring, possibly masterminded by the woman for whom he has fallen!

"Reel Magicians is a one-of-a-kind movie guide for aficionados of film and/or magic: expertly-written reviews of all movies featuring magician characters-as stars, in pivotal character parts, or through powerful symbolic presences.
"But, a caveat! The dazzling celluloid illusions may indeed depict extraordinary artistry, but they must also comply with the laws of physics!"
"Weissenberger is the only creative scholar who could have authored this book. A delightfully dexterous magician of consummate skill, he edited The Protection of Magicians' Secrets (The World Alliance of Magicians, 2002), served as legal counsel to both WAM and The International Brotherhood of Magicians, taught graduate-level film courses, and chaired The Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky Film Commission. And, as a former law school dean, and a nationally-renowned authority in legal evidence, psychiatry, and forensic psychology, he brings unique insights to magic moviemaking!" 
"Reel Magicians is an invaluable movie review guide that belongs on every movie buff's and magician's bookshelf!"
Ken Klosterman, Member, Board of Trustees and Past President (1995-96), The International Brotherhood of Magicians; author, Salon de Magie (2006)
