Değerlendirmeler

Overall, this book is an interesting opening salvo in what will undoubtedly be an emerging debate about the criminal trial as an entity. Mark Coen International Commentary on Evidence Volume 5, Issue 2 This volume, as with the earlier two in the series, is the product of a major research project. It is a well-executed and accomplished work. Arguments are elaborate and carefully constructed...It is a rich source of insights, filled with ideas that have tremendous potential; if nothing else, readers are forced to reexamine conventional assumptions about the criminal trial. For achieving that alone, the authors are to be congratulated. H L. Ho International Commentary on International Commentary on Evidence Volume 6, Issue 1, 2008 This is an excellent and provocative book, which should be read by everyone with an interest in criminal justice...an extremely important and welcome contribution to the literature on the criminal process. Peter Duff Edinburgh Law Review Vol 13, 2009 The Trial on Trial is a fascinating, and at times provocative, account of the criminal trial. Although I have been critical of a number of the arguments it offers, it has made me think through my own understanding of the trial in a way no other scholarship has done. Even if frequently it does not convince, The Trial on Trial 's thought-provoking analysis of various aspects of criminal process means that it deserves to be read widely.
