Rethinking Evidence : Exploratory Essays PDF
by William Twining

Description
The Law of Evidence has traditionally been perceived as a dry, highly technical, and mysterious subject.
This book argues that problems of evidence in law are closely related to the handling of evidence in other kinds of practical decision-making and other academic disciplines, that it is closely related to common sense and that it is an interesting, lively and accessible subject.
These essays develop a readable, coherent historical and theoretical perspective about problems of proof, evidence, and inferential reasoning in law.
Although each essay is self-standing, they are woven together to present a sustained argument for a broad inter-disciplinary approach to evidence in litigation, in which the rules of evidence play a subordinate, though significant, role.
This revised and enlarged edition includes a revised introduction, the best-known essays in the first edition, and chapters on narrative and argumentation, teaching evidence, and evidence as a multi-disciplinary subject.
