      ab: Part of a special issue on conventions in science and law. The writer puts citation practices and intertextuality in science and the law in theoretical and historical perspective. He also considers the intersection of science and law by identifying the judicial rules that determine the role of scientific literature in court proceedings. He focuses on the idiosyncrasies of the U.S. legal system that affect both scientific and legal intertextuality in judicial reasoning. As a case study, he analyses litigation surrounding phenylpropanolamine, with particular attention to one crucial study and case. In this respect, he concentrates particularly on the judicial opinion as the site of judicial reasoning.
