Each volume contains a thorough discussion of the relevant legal and psychological concepts, followed by a step-by-step description of the assessment process from preparing for the evaluation to writing the report and testifying in court.

The reader is walked through every aspect of the evaluation, beginning with an introduction to the nature and legal meaning of disability.
