“Straightforward and accessible . . . This book sets out to systematically demolish the pat, common-sense myths that make capital punishment palatable.” –Newsday
“A calmly advanced indictment of how capital punishment is applied in the U.S.”-Richmond Times-Dispatch
“The test is peppered with the agony of mangled just. As the death penalty debate grows nationally . . . the book’s relevance will only grow.”-Albuquerque Journal
“Reads like a comprehensive speech . . . its passion and detailed arguments make the book important.”-The American Prospect
