Prove It With Figures displays some of the tools of the social and statistical sciences that have been applied in the courtroom and to the study of questions of legal importance. It explains how researchers can extract the most valuable and reliable data that can conveniently be made available, and how these efforts sometimes go awry.

The many case histories include analyses of the death penalty, jury selection, employment discrimination, mass torts, and DNA profiling.
