This book does not explain why the death penalty is not moral, wise, or effective. It is not to tell why such a horrible thing is justice either. It's simply to explain what the death penalty is and how it works. The author does this by laying out the whole process from the history and evolution to the clemency and execution.</strong></span></p> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/voyager/30765 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/voyager/30765 <div class="mlacite">Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2005. <br />Call#: Van Pelt Library Reference Stacks REF K3240 .M365 2005</div> <p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>"In this book, while we touch on some of the questions just posed, our main focus is neither philosophical, nor procedural, and nor is it regimespecific." quote from the book's preface.
