دانلود کتاب The nexus of law and biology: new ethical challenges

While the relations between law and science span many centuries, there are emerging complex interactions between the informational aspects of law and biology in a host of contemporary legal applications. As a result, biological expert evidence features in a wide range of legal contexts, including medical law, torts, crime and intellectual property. As such, accounting for, and dealing with, biological expert evidence is an increasing concern of many lawyers."The Nexus of Law and Biology: New Ethical Challenges" deals with juridical uses of that science and illuminates the key issues. Similarly, as the legal system relies increasingly upon the knowledge and skills of many sciences, so scientists of all persuasions need to understand the ways in which scientific expert opinion testimony is being received by the courts and understand the general principles underpinning the rules concerning the admissibility of scientific evidence. Featuring an impressive roster of contributors, this book will serve as a bold and irreplaceable source of information for legal scholars, lawyers, and scientists alike.
