The Death Penalty: Beyond the Smoke and Mirrors
Heilbrun, Alfred B., Jr.
Capital punishment attracts strong and opposing moral positions execution by the state under any condition is wrong versus execution as just retribution for heinous killing. Using evidence from legal history, this book rejects these moral arguments as a basis for determining the social value of death penalty and considers the issue scientifically.
