Author Meets Readers: Sensing Law
January 26, 2017 at 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM
Location: | Irene's Pub 885 Bank St., Ottawa |
Cost: | Free |
This informal discussion series focuses on the latest research and books emerging from Carleton’s faculty of Public Affairs.
About the Book: Sensing Law is a collection bringing together fifteen authors from three countries and eight disciplines to examine how law and the senses collide in interesting and provocative ways. Topics range from the ways in which forensic nurses administer “rape kits” with multiple senses, to how First Nations activists are mobilizing “sniff brigades” to fight industrial pollution, to how sound is visualized in cases alleging unconscious copying of copyrighted songs.
About the Editors: Sheryl N. Hamilton, Diana Majury, Dawn Moore, Neil Sargent and Christiane Wilke are faculty members in the Carleton University Department of Law and Legal Studies.
