Belief in Evidence addresses a question fundamental to both the law and our daily experience: how do we form beliefs? Geoffrey Baker offers a multifaceted and nuanced account of how thinkers in the nineteenth-century--from Mary Shelley and Jane Austen to Wilkie Collins and Anthony Trollope--grappled with the complex nature of belief.
