Product Description
From the Duke lacrosse team to the Scooter Libby trial, the recent spate of highly publicized cases has reignited public interest in the use and abuse of prosecutorial power. Based on the premise that every American should have a basic understanding of the role of prosecutor, No Higher Calling, No Greater Responsibility analyzes the prosecution function in the broad context of criminal justice. Drawing on his personal experiences as a local, state, and federal prosecutor, Colorado Attorney General John Suthers explains in straightforward terms how the system works and how it might be made to work better, offering a fascinating look at the intricacies of crime and punishment.

Customer Reviews:
Substantive Yet Accessible November 29, 2008
I enjoyed this book quite a bit. As a lay person, it struck the right balance for me between being substantive in its discussion of important issues while remaining very accessible. It is conversational without being informal. It was an enjoyable and thought provoking read.
