The Death Penalty

by Jenny Cromie (Editor), Lynn M. Zott (Editor)

Overview

This book explores the death penalty by placing expert opinions in a unique pro versus con format. Readers are exposed to many sides of a debate, which promotes issue awareness as well as critical thinking. Across four chapters, readers will evaluate whether the death penalty is just and ethical, whether it serves the public good, whether it is applied fairly, and if it should be abolished or reformed.
