Coincidentally, I just got this notice in the mail. (I haven't looked at the
article, though.)

The Stanford Technology Law Review is pleased to announce the publication of
the following article:

Robin Feldman, *Historic Perspectives on Law & Science*, 2009 STAN. TECH. L.
REV. 1 (2009).

Law has had a long and troubled relationship with science. The misuse of
science within the legal realm, as well as our failed attempts to make law
more scientific, are well documented. The cause of these problems, however,
is less clear.

I would like to suggest that the unsatisfying relationship of law and
science can be attributed, at least in part, to law's inadequate
understanding of what constitutes science and law's inflated view of the
potential benefits of science for law. It is our failure to understand what
science knows about its own enterprise, as well as our fervent hope that law
could be something other than it is, that leads us astray.
