=520  ##$$a This book provides a comparative account of the legal and scientific issues reading to proof of causation in alleged cases of drug-induced injury, principally in the UK, Europe, and North America. It seeks to assess wheter, by using probabilistic approaches, the courts may more accurately determine the cause of adnverse reactions contentiously associated with drugs. In four case studies (DES, Bondoctin, vaccine damage and "Gulf War Syndrome"), the defeciences of orthodox approaches to causation are revealed. A sustained argument is presented in favour of according greater weight to epidemiological statistics, as refined by the application of the Bayes'theorem. A valuable feature is the discussion of the role of expert witnesses, including an examination of how the author's proposals could be accommodated within the reformed civil process envisaged by the economic implications of these proposals. It is a timely contribution to the resolution of the legal problems in this complex area of tort law.
