• catalog abstract ""Statistical Science in the Courtroom is a collection of articles written by statisticians and legal scholars who have been concerned with problems in the use of statistical evidence. A number of articles describe DNA evidence and the difficulties of properly calculating the probability that a random individual's profile would "match" that of the evidence, as well as the proper way to interpret the result. In addition to the technical issues, several authors describe their experience in court and with the legal process. Other articles describe the role of statistical evidence in cases concerning discrimination against minorities, product liability, environmental regulation, and the appropriateness and fairness of sentences. Legal statistics has raised interesting statistical problems over the years, thereby necessitating further research." "The book should be of interest to students, lawyers, and judges, as well as statisticians, epidemiologists, geneticists, and legal evidence scholars desiring a survey of the area."--Jacket.".
