Rezensionen
The broad range of important themes and topics covered, all in one text, will be a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals. The editors have done excellent work in identifying a fairly wide readership and outlining a text that will appeal to that readership...In addition to the book being well-structured and including a range of important themes and issues around capital punishment, the chapters are authored by well-respected scholars. The collection of authors is impressive, and the book is sure to reflect current research and scholarship. - DJ Williams, Idaho State University
The contents of this compendium demonstrate that the "withering away" of the death penalty is a real phenomenon related to, among other things, racial bias, high costs, super-regulation, the failure of juror decision-making, and wrongful conviction errors. The volume also focuses on the hopeful Marshall hypothesis that an educated public is more likely to accept the deathpenalty's failures. - Leona D. Jochnowitz, in Criminal Law Bulletin, Vol. 55, No. 5 (2019)
