Criminal Justice and the Pursuit of Truth - Paperback

by Tim Hillier (Author), Gavin Dingwall (Author)

Can the criminal justice system achieve justice based on its ability to determine the truth? Drawing on a variety of disciplinary and inter-disciplinary perspectives, this book investigates the concept of truth and scrutinises how well the criminal justice process facilitates truth-finding. This important work bridges the gap between what people expect from the criminal justice system and what it can legitimately deliver.
