General epistemological issues -- Expert evidence as a special case for judicial assessment -- Making sense of expert disagreement -- Non-epistemological factors in determining the role of the expert -- Assessing expert evidence in the English civil courts : the sixteenth to twentieth centuries -- Assessing expert evidence in the English civil courts today -- The effective management of bias.
By reintegrating contemporary evidence theory with applied philosophy, Deirdre Dwyer analyses the epistemological basis for the judicial assessment of expert evidence. She also examines how we might arrange our legal processes in order to support our epistemological and non-epistemological expectations.
