Brooks-Gordon, Belinda and Freeman, M. (2006) Law and psychology: issues for today. In: Brooks-Gordon, Belinda and Freeman, M. (eds.) Law and Psychology. Current Legal Issues 9. Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press. ISBN 9780199211395.
Abstract
Book synopsis: Current Legal Issues, like its sister volume Current Legal Problems, is based upon an annual colloquium held at University College London. Each year, leading scholars from around the world gather to discuss the relationship between law and another discipline of thought. Each colloqium examines how the external discipline is conceived in legal thought and argument, how the law is pictured in that discipline, and analyses points of controversy in the use, and abuse, of extra-legal arguments within legal theory and practice. Law and Psychology, the latest volume in the Current Legal Issues series, contains a broad range of essays by scholars interested in the interactions between law and psychology. The volume includes studies of jury trials in terrorism cases, psychological evidence in family law cases, child witness testimony and the role of psychology in punishment theory.
