In the second edition of An Eye for an Eye? Stephen Nathanson evaluates arguments for and against the death penalty, and ultimately defends an abolitionist position to the controversial practice, including arguments that show how and why the death penalty is inconsistent with respect for life and a commitment to justice. A timely new postscript and an updated bibliography accompany the volume.
The arguments Nathanson uses in this book against the death penalty are supurb. His opinion is not overbearing and is backed up by lots of facts. Recommended.
