Book Synopsis Justice, Mercy, and Caprice by : Ian O'Donnell
Book excerpt: The book is a work of criminal justice history that speaks to the emergence of a more humane Irish state - a close examination of the decision to grant clemency to those sentenced to death between 1923 and 1990, addressing important issues of law and penology that are of continuing relevance for countries that use capital punishment.
