review: Editorial Reviews Review "A beautifully written, finely nuanced work, a marvelous comparative constitutional study of criminal procedure that seeks to understand the larger culture." -- Lawrence Fleischer ― New York Law Journal "Written for a general audience. . . . Excellent. . . . If enough American judges and law professors read his book, some of the silly rules that he criticizes will be discarded." -- Judge Richard A. Posner ― Times Literary Supplement "Pizzi is certainly convincing in his argument that the American trial system is in dire need of overhaul" ― Law Society Journal,July 2002 "Pizzi is certainly convincing in his argument that the American trial system is in dire need of overhaul" ― Law Society Journal,July 2002 Rodney King "In a cogent, direct argument, Pizzi inveighs against the triumph of the law of unintended consequences over the law of practicality. . . . An important book." ― Publishers Weekly About the Author William T. Pizzi is Professor of Law at the University of Colorado and a former federal prosecutor.
