Al Brooke Reviews “The Brain Defense" | The Bedell Firm

Al Brooke reviewed “The Brain Defense: Murder in Manhattan and the Dawn of Neuroscience in America’s Courtrooms” in the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers journal, The Champion.  

“The Brain Defense: Murder in Manhattan and the Dawn of Neuroscience in America’s Courtrooms” was written by Kevin Davis in 2017. This book explores the perplexing story of Herbert Weinstein, who was being indicted for murder.

Davis uses this case to present a deeply researched exploration of the intersection between neuroscience and criminal justice.
