Freedom from Cruel and Unusual Punishment


Add your own review!

Overview

To what degree should the American justice system punish offenders? Should the age of the offender, or his mental capacity, or the severity of his crime help dictate a fair punishment? This anthology discusses the Eighth Amendment, including a history dating back to biblical times, its inseparable ties to the death penalty, and recent rulings and debates.
