| Abstract | "In 1913, as tension was building amongst Eurasian powers towards the end of the Balkan Wars, Charles Buckman Goring published his magnum opus: The English Convict: A Statistical Study. Medic and pioneering criminologist, Goring wanted to figure out (in his words) 'whether the criminal is born or made'. And he believed that a robust statistical enquiry could reveal the answer: 'We owe much to the experimental methods of investigating natural phenomena in plants and animals', he wrote, 'but in future our debt will be as great to the statistical method'"-- Provided by publisher. |
| Abstract | "The book explores the substantive reasons that contribute to a picture of what's at stake for individuals when we use statistical algorithms to make decisions about how to treat others, and makes robust policy recommendations about the scope and nature of human-algorithm interaction. Artificial Justice is a compelling and accessible text, which offers a great deal to a wide and interdisciplinary audience of academics, students, and those otherwise interested in learning about algorithmic justice." -- publisher's website. |
