Technology, Health, and Law in Life and
Death

Technology, Health, and Law in Life and Death

Before the Cradle to Beyond the Grave

This book offers a broad and systematic introduction to the study of miscarriages of justice by defining them and examining the dimensions, forms, and scale of the problem. The work examines the causes in detail with reference to key cases while also exploring official and unofficial responses. The book's discussion of how specific cases and campaigns have acted as drivers for change in relation to policy, practice and legislation aims to minimize future miscarriages of justice. The final chapters of the book apply a comparative approach, comparing the experiences of England and Wales to those of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and France.

Miscarriages of Justice in Contemporary Context

IMLI Studies in International Maritime Law

This book brings to light a neglected program of cosmopolitan normativity in international law - innate cosmopolitanism. Whilst liberal cosmopolitanism is organized around the abstract individual, and constitutional cosmopolitanism is organized around the achievement of a formal arrangement, innate cosmopolitanism, is organized around a naturally-occurring collective whole: comprising all of humanity at any point in time, and understood as a historical phenomenon capable of exhibiting a will, interests or ends of its own. As such, innate cosmopolitanism is, he argues, is the leitmotif of international law. The book thus brings to light an ill-appreciated stream of cosmopolitan normativity in international law, and subject it to critique.

The immanent collective in international law

Innate Cosmopolitanism

This is the story of one of the most horrifying scandals in British medical history.

The Cost of Trust

The 2nd edition of Murder, Medicine and Motherhood presents a fresh examination of the case of Kathleen Folbigg and a critical evaluation of the process that led to her exoneration in 2023. 

In 2011, the 2nd edition of this influential work argued that Kathleen Folbigg was wrongly convicted of killing her 4 children. The book attracted scholarly and public attention and led to medical and legal reviews of the Folbigg children's deaths. 

Two subsequent inquiries examined Folbigg's convictions. In 2019, Commissioner Blanch concluded that Folbigg's guilt was "even more certain" than it had been at trial. His report provoked an unprecedented response from the Australian Academy of Science, highlighting a rift between the legal and scientific establishments over how medical evidence should be managed. A petition signed by Nobel prize winners and others demanded a further review. The 2nd inquiry, completed in 2023, adopted a markedly different approach to scientific and behavioural evidence. Commissioner Bathurst ultimately reached the "firm view" that "reasonable doubt exists as to Folbigg's guilt." 

This new edition extends the examination of the legal process, medical evidence, and normative expectations of motherhood. It evaluates law's fact-finding processes and the legal system's adherence to the principles of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, and raises concerns about how legal actors work with scientific uncertainty and assess women's credibility and demeanour.

The Wrongful Convictions of Kathleen Folbigg

Murder, Medicine and Motherhood

The Politics of Adjudication addresses the pragmatics of legal decision making. This is a question of politics, according to which constitutional law is not, it is argued, the instantiation of timeless and universal principles of governance.

The Politics of Adjudication

Written by the editor of the Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, this practical book explains how to avoid such pitfalls of the medical professions as failure to diagnose, confidentiality, disclosure of information, lack of informed consent, and poor documentation. It aids doctors in all disciplines to become proactive in managed care, expert testimony, and medical malpractice. Citing case law both in the US and abroad gives the book global appeal.

"As panicked liberals scramble to defend the Constitution from ascendant fascism, Lawyering for Liberation goes on the offense, offering an invaluable guide for building power and making change. Reflecting the collective wisdom of some of the most talented and fearless movement lawyers of any generation, this book demonstrates that the revolution will not be litigated and that real justice means remaking the world."--Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination "It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the prospect of a better world: How do we get there? What can one person do? What is the best path forward? For people asking these questions, this book is an immeasurable gift, providing both the big-picture framework and laying out clear, tangible steps you can take. It's the book every lawyer, organizer, and changemaker needs to help improve their community, city, country, and the world."--Josie Duffy Rice, writer and political commentator "This is an indispensable guide for lawyers who want to support movements' boldest visions for a better world. It offers guiding principles, from a wise chorus of voices, to help us move with more creativity, self-reflection, and care."--Amanda Alexander, founder and former Executive Director of Detroit Justice Center
