McCormick on Evidence and the Concept of Hearsay: A Critical Analysis Followed by Suggestions to Law Teachers Roger C. Park* Few modern one volume treatises are as widely used or as influential as McCormick's Handbook of the Law of Evidence.1 The book has been employed by teachers as a casebook substi- tute in law school evidence courses,2 used by attorneys in the practice of law, and cited extensively by the Advisory Commit- tee on the Federal Rules of Evidence.3 McCormick deserves the popularity that it has achieved as a teaching tool and a ref- erence work.
