Facts Can't Speak for Themselves Reveal the stories that give facts their meaning
By Eric Oliver. Published by NITA

Facts Can't Speak for Themselves is a groundbreaking book that examines the relationship between the facts and the stories that shape their interpretation.

Trial lawyers and consultants recognize that cases are decided by people, who because they are human, cannot help but make up their own versions of a case story. But there remains a huge gulf between knowing that the stories exist and understanding how to use them to construct a compelling case presentation.

Facts Can't Speak for Themselves introduces a well-defined methodology; a practical approach to the development of case presentations that have a profound resonance with listeners because it is based on the nuggets of their own narrative.
