"Neuroscience and Law interrogates a wider spectrum of problems raised by the rise of neuroscience as a (potentially) legally pertinent epistemic and operational framework. ... the scope is overall admirable and, to me at least, refreshing." (Riccardo Vecellio Segate, Nordic Journal of Human Rights, April 27, 2022)
