This is a paperbound edition of a 1994 book about which Book News wrote: Often viewed as irrefutable, evidence is, in fact, an interpretive science, refracted through the varying perspectives of different disciplines. Finding truth in the scatter of evidence is a highly subjective task, precariously balanced on the methods of discovery, arrangement, and argument. The author examines the principles and procedures of evidence analysis, and sheds light on probabilistic reasoning based on evidence that is incomplete, inconclusive, and often imprecise. He brings together insights from law, philosophy, logic, probability, semiotics, artificial intelligence, psychology, and history. A textbook Sherlock Holmes would be proud of. Annotation c.
