Evaluating scientific evidence

by Erica Beecher-Monas

"Scientific evidence is crucial in a burgeoning number of litigated cases, legislative enactments, regulatory decisions, and scholarly arguments. Evaluating Scientific Evidence explores the question of what counts as scientific knowledge, a question that has become a focus of heated courtroom and scholarly debate, not only in the United States, but also in other common law countries such as the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia."--BOOK JACKET.
