Recensioner i media

“Searching Minds by Scanning Brains presents in-depth discussions of how the Fourth and Fifth Amendments have been used to make decisions about the constitutionality of brain scanning offered as evidence in criminal cases. … This book could be a very helpful text for law students, not only because of the resources and format of the book but also because of Blitz’s modeling of the disciplined logical and balanced thinking of an expert legal scholar.” (Patricia E. Freed, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (32), August, 2017)
