Recenzii
Murphy regards himself essentially as an essayist who paints the big picture in rather broad strokes. He is indeed a superb essayist, and the essays in this collection are beautifully written.... This is a collection that will be read with much pleasure and instruction.
In these essays we see that law and philosophy scholarship can be personal, engaged, passionate, accessible, broad-minded, provocative and disturbing. It can even supply a moral lesson. For me the lesson is that when it comes to punishment, whether justified as retributive, deterrent or otherwise, recognizing human fallibility is not just a good thing, but the essential thing; it should be the foundation on which all else builds.
