It begins with a survey of the kinds of litigation, legislation and regulation where neuroscience is currently being used. It continues with accessible descriptions of basic brain anatomy and brain function. It then provides an overview of how modern technologies can reveal the brain structures and brain functions of individuals. It finishes with cautions and limitations, and with a speculative peek into where the future of neurolaw might lead. Throughout, the authors offer guidance on understanding both the promise and the limitations of using brain science in law and policymaking"--  |c Provided by publisher.
