In particular, the book explores the relationship between ""juror factors""--that is, jurors' race, gender, income, education and personal beliefs--and verdicts. While most research has found no link between verdicts and ""juror factors,"" this book, using new, previously unavailable data, argues that the composition of a jury can have a strong effect on the outcome of a trial. The book also explores the implications of this relationship for jury selection procedures and tort reform proposals.
