Sinopsis

Plea Bargain Mechanics offers a comprehensive exploration into the world of plea bargains within the criminal justice system. It argues that plea bargaining, despite its criticisms, is a crucial mechanism for the functioning of contemporary criminal courts. Without it, the system would likely be overwhelmed, potentially harming the rights of both defendants and victims. 

 
The book examines the structure of plea deals, detailing the types of agreements such as charge and sentence bargains, and the legal constraints that govern them. It analyzes the motivations behind plea bargaining, looking at incentives for defendants, prosecutors, and judges. Did you know that plea bargaining emerged as a pragmatic solution to alleviate pressures from rising crime rates and complex legal procedures?

 
Also, the book uses statistical data on plea agreement rates and sentencing outcomes to provide a quantitative analysis of this phenomenon. The book progresses from introducing the history and legal basis of plea bargaining to examining negotiation strategies, factors influencing plea deals, and their impact on sentencing disparities. It concludes by exploring potential reforms to enhance transparency and equity. It delves into the political science and true crime aspects of plea bargains, balancing legal analysis with empirical research and practical insights.

  • Taking Privacy Seriously - How to Create the Rights We Need While We Still Have Something to Protect - cover

    Taking Privacy Seriously - How...

    James B. Rule

    A STEP-BY-STEP PROGRAM TO CREATE A MORE PRIVATE AND EGALITARIAN DIGITAL WORLD 
     
    Taking Privacy Seriously offers both a hard-hitting assessment of the origins of today’s privacy-eroding practices and a robust road map for creating individual authority over our personal data. James B. Rule proposes eleven key reforms in the control and use of personal information—including far-reaching new rights for individuals and meaningful responsibilities for data-keeping organizations—all aimed at redressing the balance of power between ordinary citizens and data hungry corporate and government institutions. 
     
    What a privacy-deprived America needs most is not less technology, Rule argues, but profound political realignment. His proposed reforms include the creation of websites that publicly document what organizations are holding what forms of personal data; the establishment of a right for citizens to withdraw from personal data systems not required by law; and the institution of a universal property right over commercial exploitation of data on oneself—so that no organization could profit from the use or sale of such data without permission. Succinct and compelling, Taking Privacy Seriously explains how we can refashion information technologies so that they serve human needs, not the other way around. 
     
    “This book is direct, impatient (in the best way possible), and urgent. It doesn’t waste time summarizing all the things we already know about privacy in theUnited States, but instead asks, What is to be done? We need a book like this.”—David Murakami Wood, Professor, Department of Criminology, University of Ottawa

    "How We Think" is a seminal work by John Dewey, an influential American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer. Published in 1910, the book explores the nature of thought, inquiry, and problem-solving, particularly within the context of education and learning. Dewey argues that thinking is an active process involving inquiry, reflection, and experimentation rather than a passive absorption of knowledge. He emphasizes the importance of critical thinking, creative problem-solving, and the integration of experiences in shaping one's understanding of the world.

    Hear an actual cylinder recording of Harry Houdini: "...Ladies and gentlemen. Introducing my original invention, the Water Torture Cell. Although there is nothing supernatural about it, I am willing to proffer the sum of $1,000.00 to anyone who can prove that it is possible to consume air inside of the Torture Cell when I'm locked up in it in the regulation manner after it has been filled with water. Should anything go wrong when I'm locked up, one of my assistants walks through the curtains, ready to rush in, demolishing the glass, allowing the water to flow out, in order to save my life. 
    - I, Houdini, October 29, 1914, Flatbush, NY." 
     
    Harry Houdini, born Erich Weisz; March 24, 1874 - October 31, 1926) was a Hungarian-birn American escape artist, magic man, and stunt performer, noted for his escape acts. His pseudonym is a reference to his spiritual master, French magician Robert-Houdin (1805–1871).

    A coming-of-age memoir about a young woman and her friends squatting in abandoned houses in London in the late 70s during the emerging counterculture scene.
    Set in South London (Crystal Palace), Deborah mingled with some of the biggest names to emerge from the scene. She booked The Damned's first show, served pints to Johnny Rotten, and attended a backyard gig from King Kurt.
    Squat life was sex, drugs and punk rock but it wasn't all fun and games. The Peanut Factory shows Deborah navigating a male-dominated scene, moving every few months and living with drug dealers, sex workers, people on the run, and working-class kids like her.
    Despite the chaos, the squatters were a family. They were kids creating their own rules. Making art. Living life on the fly. The Peanut Factory is an ode to the youthful rebellion of the 1970s and to London itself.
    'A window into a time of raw energy and rough edges, Deb Price paints a vivid picture of life in the squats of South London. By turns amusing and alarming, but always engaging, we accompany a teenager as she navigates her way to womanhood in a sub-culture on the margins.' - Allie Rogers, author of Little Gold and Tale of a Tooth
