Book Review: Carl Cranor, Toxic Torts: Science, Law, And The Possibility Of Justice, David Caudill Jul 2013

Book Review: Carl Cranor, Toxic Torts: Science, Law, And The Possibility Of Justice, David Caudill

David S Caudill

Carl F. Cranor’s Toxic Torts: Science, Law, and the Possibility of Justice is a sustained, comprehensive argument that the Daubert gatekeeping regime has tilted the playing field against injured plaintiffs in toxic tort litigation. More generally, Cranor joins those who argue that the Daubert regime has not fared well in practice. Complex scientific evidence is not handled well in trials because scientific methods, data, and inferential reasoning are not well understood by gatekeeping judges. Cranor’s goal is to help solve this problem by offering a detailed description of the patterns of reasoning, evidence collection, and inference in nonlegal scientific settings. …

Stories About Science In Law: Literary And Historical Images Of Acquired Expertise, David Caudill Dec 2010

Stories About Science In Law: Literary And Historical Images Of Acquired Expertise, David Caudill

David S Caudill

Presenting examples of how literary accounts can provide a supplement to our understanding of science in law, this book challenges the view that law and science are completely different. It focuses on stories which explore the relationship between law and science, especially cultural images of science that prevail in legal contexts. Contrasting with other studies of the transfer and construction of expertise in legal settings, this book considers the intersection of three interdisciplinary projects: law and science, law and literature, and literature and science. Looking at the appropriation of scientific expertise into law from these perspectives, this book presents an …

Ethnography And The Idealized Accounts Of Science In Law, David Caudill Jul 2002

Ethnography And The Idealized Accounts Of Science In Law, David Caudill

David S Caudill

An idealized description of scientific activity persists in law and legal literature. Social aspects of science are regularly acknowledged and then dismissed as temporary, irrelevant, or eliminable. A distinction should be made between eliminable and inevitable social aspects of science, and engagement with the latter would lead to a more accurate description of the scientific enterprise. After explaining how ethnomethodology is used to explore the inevitable social, institutional, and rhetorical aspects of science, I identify numerous social aspects and suggest how understanding their role in the production of scientific knowledge might help attorneys and judges in their evaluations of scientific …
