Truth machine : the contentious history of DNA fingerprinting
Michael Lynch, et al
DNA profiling—commonly known as DNA fingerprinting—is often heralded as
unassailable criminal evidence, a veritable “truth machine” that can
overturn convictions based on eyewitness testimony, confessions, and
other forms of forensic evidence. But DNA evidence is far from
infallible. Truth Machine traces the controversial history of DNA
fingerprinting by looking at court cases in the United States and
United Kingdom beginning in the mid-1980s, when the practice was
invented, and continuing until the present. Ultimately, Truth Machine presents compelling evidence of the obstacles and opportunities at the intersection of science, technology, sociology, and law.
