I am using a lot of INCOLLECTION entries myself, and I am wondering if it has to do more with your bib-file than with 
your jurabib-settings. E.g. I think the book you're talking about probably has an editor, not an author (since the 
book contains texts by different authors). I suppose there can be only one 'author' and 'title', namely the one from 
the actual text you're referring to. The crossref would provide 'booktitle' and 'editor' fields I imagine. At one 
point I had found an information about what he differerence between INCOLLECTION and INBOOK (and others?) is, but I 
don't remember where. Have you googled for it? Also, AFAIU, it is important to have a 'booktitle' field supplied along 
with the book entry. 

here's a snippet of my bibfile, see if it's any use to you:

-------

@INCOLLECTION{Lefort50a,
author = {Claude Lefort},
gender = {sm},
title = {\frqq{}Le t{\'{e}}moignage d'Anton Ciliga\flqq{}},
shorttitle = {Ciliga},
pages = {145--154},
crossref = {Lefort71},
otherinfo = {[1950]}
}

@INCOLLECTION{NancyLacoueLabarthe81a,
author = {Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe and Jean-Luc Nancy},
gender = {pm},
title = {\frqq{}Ouverture\flqq{}},
shorttitle = {Ouverture},
crossref = {NancyLacoueLabarthe81},
pages = {11--28},
otherinfo = {1980-12-08}
}

@BOOK{Lefort71,
author = {Claude Lefort},
gender = {sm},
title = {{\'{E}}l{\'{e}}ments d'une critique de la bureaucratie},
booktitle = {{\'{E}}l{\'{e}}ments d'une critique de la bureaucratie},
shorttitle = {{\'{E}}l{\'{e}}ments \dots},
address = {Paris},
publisher = {Gallimard},
edition = {2},
year = {1979},
otherinfo = {Die Erstauflage von 1971 (bei Droz, Genf) wurde um ein Vorwort und ein Kapitel erweitert}
}

@BOOK{NancyLacoueLabarthe81,
editor = {Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe and Jean-Luc Nancy},
gender = {pm},
title = {Rejouer le politique. travaux du centre de recherches philosophiques sur le politique},
booktitle = {Rejouer le politique. travaux du centre de recherches philosophiques sur le politique},
address = {Paris},
publisher = {Galil{\'{e}}e},
year = {1981},
otherinfo = {}
}

Hope this helps, CU
