More about the book
Exploring the contentious debate surrounding capital punishment, the book analyzes the moral arguments for and against state executions. It critically examines these positions using legal history and shifts the focus to a scientific inquiry into whether the death penalty effectively deters intentional homicide. By prioritizing empirical evidence over moral reasoning, the author aims to assess the social value of capital punishment in a more objective manner.
