Doron Menashe, Guy Itzhak Sender

The Epistemology of Evidence Law

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents an array of thoughtful, critical and original inquiries into this intriguing subject matter. D.M, a world expert in evidence, is exploring how is truth arrived at in the context of an adversarial proceeding? What are the underlying preconceptions of this endeavor? What are the common fallacies, prejudices and misconceptions that we must be aware of while pursuing the truth? Where and how does the process of legal fact-finding deviate from its stated ideals? In an imperfect system of fact-finding that is intrinsically prone to error, yet whose operation is imperative and vital nonetheless, what do the integrity and the validity of legal proof consist? Consequently, how should fact finders in the legal context frame their expectations, their moral and intellectual efforts and their methods of evaluation and reasoning?"This book covers both the philosophical foundations of evidence law and the practical aspects of this field of legal knowledge. Both academic lawyers and advocates engaged in practice can benefit greatly from the novel, thoughtful and interesting ideas and insights that permeate this volume."Asher D. Grunis, President (Ret.)The Supreme Court of Israel
