Reviews

This exhaustive and timely overview of consent s position within our criminal and civil legal systems in the UK, US, Australia and the Netherlands should serve as something of a call to arms for those of us working in all areas of forensic linguistics and language and law. It is wholly consistent with an understanding of our role as one which seeks to protect human rights and be driven by questions of social justice (Eades, 2010: 422), and sheds further light on how we as linguists can contribute to such an effort. --Language and Law
