This edited book provides an in-depth examination of the
implications of neuroscience for the criminal justice system. It
draws together experts from across law, neuroscience, medicine,
psychology, criminology, and ethics, and offers an important
contribution to current debates at the intersection of these
fields. It examines how neuroscience might contribute to fair and
more effective criminal justice systems, and how neuroscientific
insights and information can be integrated into criminal law in a
way that respects fundamental rights and moral values. The book's
first part approaches these questions from a legal perspective,
followed by ethical accounts in part two. Its authors address a
wide range of topics and approaches: some more theoretical, like
those regarding the foundations of punishment; others are more
practical, like those concerning the use of brain scans in the
courtroom. Together, they illustrate the thoroughly
interdisciplinary nature of the debate, in which science, law and
ethics are closely intertwined. It will appeal in particular to
students and scholars of law, neuroscience, criminology,
socio-legal studies and philosophy. Chapter 8 is available open
