Summary
This book presents an in-depth discussion on two concepts from the field of philosophy and law, in order to improve our understanding of the relation between "fact" and "evidence" in judicial process. Since fact-finding is a difficult task for judges, proof by evidence has been devised to help them access the truth. However, in the process of judicial fact-finding, there is always a gap between fact and truth. This book covers a wide range of topics, from reflections on the concept of "fact," "evidence" and "fact-finding" in the field of philosophy and law to individual case studies. As such it is a useful reference resource on the continuing research on the judicial proof process for students and scholars
