Statistics on trial.
Although the concerns of Statistics and the Law might seem to have little to do with one other, they do share some fundamental common interests, such as interpretation of evidence, hypothesis testing and decision-making under uncertainty. Philip Dawid takes up questions that, though long of interest to a few scholars, have only recently become the focus of much attention.
