ISBN: 9780773525382 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Christopher Nowlin examines expert evidence in North American obscenity trials and reveals how little consensus there is among those who purport to know best about the nature of artistic representation, human sexuality, and the psychological and behavioural effects of reading, writing, or watching explicit sexual narratives and imagery. He demonstrates that these communities of experts are divided on such questions as: Can a novel or film be both high art and obscene? and Is the world of heterosexual pornography categorically different from the worlds of gay and lesbian pornography? He...

ISBN: 9789027726896 / Angielski / Twarda / 345 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores the nature of factual inference in adjudication. The book should be useful to students of law in Continental Europe as well as to students of Anglo-American law. While a good many countries do not use the sorts of rules of evidence found in the Anglo-American legal tradition, their procedural systems nevertheless frequently use a variety of rules and principles to regulate and structure the acquisition, presentation, and evalu- ation of evidence. In this sense, almost all legal systems have a law of proof. This book should also be useful to scholars in fields other than...

Evidence & the Adversarial Process: The Modern Law
ISBN: 9781901362183 / Angielski / Miękka / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The first edition of this text was published in 1992. Since then the law of evidence has undergone many significant changes, for example to the right to silence, the rules on disclosure, corroboration and the treatment of child witnesses. Despite substantial revision of the original text, the themes of the first edition are retained: to what extent is the content of the law of evidence dictated by the adversarial form of trial, and is it worth retaining? Do the rules of evidence operate in the interests of justice?

Foundations of Evidence Law
ISBN: 9780198257363 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first book to systematically examine the underlying theory of evidence in Anglo-American legal systems. Stein develops a detailed and innovative theory which sets aside the traditional vision of evidence law as facilitating the discovery of the truth. Combining probability theory, epistemology, economic analysis, and moral philosophy, he argues instead that the fundamental purpose of evidence law is to apportion the risk of error in conditions of uncertainty.

The Judicial Assessment of Expert Evidence
ISBN: 9780521509701 / Angielski / Twarda / 468 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Justice systems increasingly rely on expert evidence. We are therefore obliged to justify the courts' ability to assess this evidence, especially when the courts must resolve disagreements between experts or address possible bias. By reintegrating contemporary evidence theory with applied philosophy, Deirdre Dwyer analyses the epistemological basis for the judicial assessment of expert evidence. Reintegrating evidence with procedure, she also examines how we might arrange our legal processes in order to support our epistemological and non-epistemological expectations. Including analysis of...

The book fills a gap in the literature, offering a reconsideration of many different topics, especially areas of the law of evidence which have not yet been subjected to sustained feminist discussion.

Legal Professional Privilege: Law and Theory
ISBN: 9781841131016 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the Commonwealth, the principle of legal professional privilege (the privilege) has been treated as almost sacrosanct and in consequence, derogations from it have been rare. The traditional view that, despite resulting unfairness, the rule must be absolute in order to achieve its stated goals is challenged here through an examination of the theoretical structure of and common law derogations from the privilege. Auburn argues that the claims made of the rule in the past have been overstated and that the privilege is more robust than widely assumed. Being dependent on patterns of client...

This is the second edition of John Spencer's now well established book which seeks to explain this complex area of law for the benefit of members of judges, criminal practitioners and academics teaching the law of evidence. In the past, the rule excluding evidence of the defendant's general bad character and disposition to commit the offence was sometimes described as one of the most hallowed rules of evidence; Lord Sankey, in Maxwell v DPP, referred to it as '...one of the most deeply rooted and jealously guarded principles of our criminal law.' In reality it was not particularly ancient,...
