Rezensionen

"Remorse permeates the entire criminal justice system, affecting decisions from policing through to parole. This unique collection of essays explores the role and consequences of remorse, drawing on a range of perspectives and disciplines. It will interest scholars across many jurisdictions, and indeed to anyone with an interest in criminal justice."

Julian Roberts, Professor of Criminology, University of Oxford, UK

"As a sentencing judge who wrestles daily with questions of whether and how to detect remorse in a highly multicultural courtroom, Part 1 - Judging Remorse - is particularly helpful in offering theoretical and practical guidance to beleaguered lawyers and judges. This excellent text should be provided to every new judge."

Justice David P. Cole, Ontario Court of Justice, Toronto, Canada

"Bringing remorse in from the sidelines of scholarly and policy interest `Remorse and Criminal Justice' untangles the place of this complex emotion in criminal courts and beyond. With depth and urgency, a stellar mix of authors and chapters addresses the performance, expression, experience and assessment of remorse. An essential resource for practitioners, the collection enriches law and emotion scholarship."
