<br/><br/> How do juries make decisions about punitive damages? The authors present the results of controlled experiments with more than 600 mock juries involving the responses of more than 8,000 jury-eligible citizens. Although juries tended to agree in their moral judgments about the defendant's conduct, they rendered erratic and unpredictable dollar awards. Using a wealth of new experimental data, and offering a host of provocative findings, this book documents a wide range of systematic biases in jury behaviour.
