Introduction

Note to Readers:

Although I am named as the author of this book you will note that none of it appears to have actually been written by me. The introduction is attributed to Dr J Antonius Gill, who purports to be a partner in a London law firm, the conclusion is said to be the work of a dubious law professor and between the two you will find seven “Dialogues” between Socrates and various lawyers in New Zealand.

For the avoidance of doubt there is no J Antonius Gill, the law professor is made up and Socrates has not, as far as I know, been to New Zealand.

I have written the book in this way in an attempt to deal with the subject of expert evidence in a different and hopefully engaging way. I therefore invite you to ignore Dr Gill's unkind words and hope that you will find the book both interesting and useful.
