I really do promise to start writing some actual posts soon, but I wanted to draw everyone’s attention to this notice on the Law and Neuroscience Blog (which, by the way, you already read; right?):
just wanted to announce that Michael Pardo and Dennis Patterson have graciously agreed to participate in an on-line reading group here on The Law and Neuroscience Blog later this fall. We have yet to formally set the date, but once we do I will post the official dates and times. For now, I just wanted to say a few things about this exciting event. First, as many of you know, Pardo and Patterson have recently written two widely discussed papers which approach the gathering field of neurolaw with a very critical eye:
- Pardo, M. and Patterson,D. Forthcoming. “Philosophical Foundations of Law and Neuroscience.” The University of Illinois Law Review.
- Pardo, M. and Patterson, D. Forthcoming. “Minds, Brains, and Norms.” Neuroethics.
More news to come, of course, and I’m sure I’ll have some thoughts on the subject to share.
