Expert Witnessing - Explaining and Understanding Science (Hardcover)

Communication problems between science and the courts are widely deplo red and sometimes exploited by a variety of groups. The U.S. Supreme C ourt has twice tightened the law of evidence to control the flow of in formation, but amazingly little has been written to analyze the nature of the problem and reduce the barriers. Expert Witnesses: Explaining and Understanding Science results from the first-hand experience of th e contributors-who include scientists, expert witnesses, litigators, a nd a judge-that the cultural and interdisciplinary communications barr iers between science and the law can be greatly reduced to everybody's advantage if the parties understand and respect each other's needs an d positions.
