by Richard Stack (Author)
The US is alone among Western democracies in its support for capital punishment. Studies show that capital punishment is not a deterrent to crime. This book argues that death row is a form of psychological torture and slow, painful dehumanisation. It aims to provide information and strategies to those who are opposed to the death penalty.
