The legal system depends upon memory function in a number of
critical ways, including the memories of victims, the memories of
individuals who witness crimes or other critical events, the
memories of investigators, lawyers, and judges engaged in the legal
process, and the memories of jurors. How well memory works, how
accurate it is, how it is affected by various aspects of the
criminal justice system -- these are all important questions. But
there are others as well: Can we tell when someone is reporting an
accurate memory? Can we distinguish a true memory from a false one?
Can memories be selectively enhanced, or erased? Are memories
altered by emotion, by stress, by drugs? These questions and more
are addressed by Memory and Law, which aims to present the current
state of knowledge among cognitive and neural scientists about
memory as applied to the law.
