Produktbeschreibung
As the nation is coming to an increasing realization of the fatal dysfunction in which the death penalty in America operates, author Robert V. Dolan, MD, details the myriad weaknesses in the system and the need for its elimination. Further, he argues that it is the ethical and fiduciary responsibility of We the People to be the causative agents in this transition to a reasonable and workable alternative. Over 15,000 murders are committed in the US every year, yet fewer than fifty executions are carried out in that very same time span. The enormity of the mounting financial and emotional expenses paid by victims' families adds to an already complicated matter. This begs the question: do we replace the death penalty with life without parole (LWOP)? In Death to Death, author and surgeon Robert V. Dolan, MD, deftly examines the financial, ethical, emotional, and societal ramifications created by the death penalty, and offers intelligent insight into alternative solutions. With his historical recap of capital punishment and its various methods and processes through the years, Dolan dares to expose the underbelly of a flawed and antiquated system in favor of a more effective solution.
