A philosophy of evidence law: justice in the search for truth
New York: Oxford University Press (2008)
Abstract
This book examines the legal and moral theory behind the law of evidence and proof, arguing that only by exploring the nature of responsibility in fact-finding can the role and purpose of much of the law be fully understood. Ho argues that the court must not only find the truth to do justice, it must do justice in finding the truth.Author's Profile
