The Insanity Defense
ISBN: 9780300000993 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For more than a century, the insanity defense has been the most passionately debated issue in criminal law, the focal point of deeply rooted conflicts as to the function of a law of crime. Unfortunately, however, the debate has been dominated by slogans and stereotypes - and by an inappropriate array of law against psychiatry, retribution against rehabilitation. The prevailing M'Naghten and "irresistible impulse" rules have been roundly condemned and a reform consensus has developed that "something" desperately needs to be done about the insanity defense. Mr. Goldstein examines the...

Forensic Speaker Identification
ISBN: 9780415271820 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A voice is much more than just a string of words. Voices, unlike fingerprints, are inherently complex. They signal a great deal of information in addition to the intended message: the speakers' sex, for example, or their emotional state, or age. Although evidence from DNA analysis grabs the headlines, DNA can't talk. It can't be recorded planning, carrying-out or confessing to a crime. It can't be so apparently directly incriminating. Perhaps it is these features which contribute to the interest and importance of Forensic Speaker Identification (FSI).

Rethinking Evidence: Exploratory Essays
ISBN: 9780521675376 / Angielski / Miękka / 532 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Law of Evidence has traditionally been perceived as a dry, highly technical, and mysterious subject. This book argues that problems of evidence in law are closely related to the handling of evidence in other kinds of practical decision-making and other academic disciplines, that it is closely related to common sense and that it is an interesting, lively and accessible subject. These essays develop a readable, coherent historical and theoretical perspective about problems of proof, evidence, and inferential reasoning in law. Although each essay is self-standing, they are woven together to...
