Confronting Failures of Justice
Most murderers and rapists escape justice, a horrifying fact that has gone largely unexamined until now.

Each chapter outlines the nature and extent of justice failures in present practice, describing the interests at stake, and providing real-world examples.

The incompatible and ultimately unreconcilable perception of America made no room for effective collaboration between Obama and Republicans, and has led to subsequent problems and tensions.
