In Training on Trial by James and Wendy Kirkpatrick, the reader is presented with the idea of viewing his training endeavors as though they were part of a legal case. Throughout the book, the Kirkpatricks use the legal trial metaphor to explain how learning professionals should operate when confronted with challenges.
Early in the book, the authors provide the reader with a guide that addresses the legal metaphor, so readers do not have to have a legal background to read and understand the book
