520 _a"Should statistical evidence be used as legal evidence? The book addresses this question by considering the relationship between evidence, randomness and justifying reasons. A distinction will be drawn between evidence that can justify critical judgements and evidence that can only justify non-critical judgements. Evidence can justify critical judgement only if it can support all the propositions of the judgement, thus leaving none of the propositions random. Evidence can justify non-critical judgements even where it leaves some propositions random. One implication is that 'naked statistical evidence' can only justify non-critical judgements. The proposed evidential distinction will be further explored and attuned in a range of legal and related extra-legal contexts. These will include the context of: - criminal and civil judgements; - allocation of burdens based on profiling (like in 'stop and search'); - distribution of resources based on profiling; - private judgements in everyday life; and - justified belief."--
