Publication Reviews

Dr. SunWolf’s insights into persuasion, social thinking, and group decision-making are collected in the award-winning Practical Jury Dynamics2: From One Juror’s Trial Perceptions to the Group’s Decision-Making Processes from ³ÉÈËÓ°Òô®, consistently applauded by top litigators: 

Jury work is frightening, fatiguing, and leaves little time for intellectual research or reading interesting professional writings. SunWolf goes beyond all of that.Her books and teachings are ESSENTIAL to every person who dares to call herself or himself a trial lawyer. It does not matter the depth of experience of the lawyer, the type of case, or the venue—she has something to make the lawyer better on every page.
—Roger J. Dodd, trial attorney and best-selling author, Valdosta, GA 

SunWolf dissects the juror’s mind using analytic tools borrowed from numerous disciplines, distilling insights, then synthesizing them into practical and immediately applicable lessons for trial lawyers. SunWolf has been on the cutting edge of practice for over twenty years.
