Description

Medical Malpractice and the American Jury explores why the claims about jury misbehavior are so discrepant from the actual evidence that, on average, malpractice juries perform their task quite well. The implications of this study will make it required reading for policymakers, health practitioners, lawyers, judges, and academics.
