Who Owns Death?: Capital Punishment, the American Conscience, and the End of Executions
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: William Morrow & Company

Description:
Capital punishment has existed in our country for centuries, but Americans have always felt conflicted about it. Now, as the number of executions rises, opposition to the death penalty is building. To explain this society-wide struggle to come to grips with executions, a pair of award-winning authors -- a distinguished psychiatrist and an acclaimed journalist -- talked to Americans deeply involved in the death penalty system.
Expand description
Highly topical and provocative, Who Owns Death? is unique in exploring the mindset of those who play some role in executions -- including prison wardens, prosecutors, jurors, judges, and relatives of murder victims, many of whom reveal surprising doubts about, even opposition to, state killing. Indeed, in a sure-to-be controversial conclusion, the authors predict that executions in America will come to an end in the near future.
