摘要
This is a critical review of the book, Deadly Justice: A Statistical Portrait of the Death Penalty. Parts of the book addressed are public opinion polling, racial disparities, and death-qualified juries. Numerous examples are provided for how the book, while informative, provides a deceptive view on the subject through the selective use of statistics and provided explanations.
