An Unlikely Friendship Between a Prosecutor and a Convict

This book offers fresh perspectives on the role of addiction in prior fault culpability by integrating legal, psychological, neuroscientific and philosophical dimensions. Are intoxicated defendants responsible for harms they cause to persons and property when intoxicated? Should they be criminally liable for those harms, even if they act without intention or control? What if their intoxicated state is associated with addiction? Analysing the complex interactions between addiction, intoxication and law, prior fault is addressed from various jurisdictions including predominantly England and Wales, Scotland, and the Netherlands, while also incorporating multiple disciplines, thereby discussing prior fault structures from overarching, non-jurisdictional perspectives. These different disciplines and legal systems are not merely described but closely integrated through co-authored chapters, involving academics from different disciplinary fields and legal traditions. This collection is a thorough resource for students, academics, researchers, and practising lawyers who aim to deepen their understanding of the law's approach towards addiction and intoxication. Moreover, it illustrates the importance of a collaborative approach between different legal traditions and interdisciplinary scientific understanding, thereby laying the groundwork for future legal reforms, informed legal practice, and research.

Comparative Perspectives on Addiction and Intoxication

Criminal Law and Prior Fault

Building on a wealth of original ethnographic research, in this book Manning develops his dramaturgical framework to formulate a theory of police organization. The Police Mandate will be essential reading for all policing scholars, as well as sociologists and criminologists alike.

Organizational analysis

The Police Mandate

An unprecedented dialogue between a long-term federal prisoner and a senior prison official reveals how America’s carceral system scars everyone it touches.
No One Gets Out Unscarred argues that the prison system fails not only those it incarcerates, but also the staff who work inside it and the communities to which most will return. Rather than opposing prisoners and correctional officers, it shows how their lives are shaped by the same punitive culture, institutional incentives, and political decisions.
At its center is an extraordinary exchange between two men on opposite sides of the bars: Robert Barton, incarcerated since adolescence in high-security federal prisons, and Jack Donson, a retired Bureau of Prisons official who rose from correctional officer to case manager. Drawn from more than fifty hours of interviews, their interwoven accounts reveal a system that brutalizes prisoners while eroding staff morale, health, and judgment.
Moving beyond exposés and redemption narratives, the book examines the everyday mechanics of incarceration—lockdowns, restrictive housing, medical neglect, mental-health failures, broken grievance systems, and the hollow promise of rehabilitation—through lived experience on both sides.
Rejecting both abolitionist polemic and law-and-order defenses, it asks a pragmatic question: if more than 95 percent of incarcerated people will return home, what kind of prison system actually serves society?

The Case Against America's Prison System, From Both Sides of the Wall

No One Gets Out Unscarred

Victims, Culture and Society

This book critically evaluates how and why social, cultural and gendered norms impact on a child's vulnerability and argues for a paradigm shift in our understanding of how grooming impacts on child vulnerability during the victimisation process.

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! •&nbsp;A READ WITH JENNA TODAY SHOW BOOK CLUB PICK&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;A heartbreaking, empowering, often hilarious debut memoir about a mother’s all-consuming love, a son’s perilous quest to discover the world beyond the front door and the unregulated homeschool system that impacts millions like him *A BookRiot Best Book of the Year* *A&nbsp;BookPage&nbsp;Memoir of the Year* *A Top 10 Amazon Book of the Month Pick* *A Washington Post&nbsp;Book to Read in January!* *A&nbsp;Library Journal Big&nbsp;Book of the Week!* *A BookRiot&nbsp;Best New Nonfiction of January!* Stefan Merrill Block&nbsp;was nine when his mother pulled him from school, certain that his teachers were “stifling his creativity.” Hungry for more time with her boy who was growing up too quickly, she began to instruct Stefan in the family’s living room.&nbsp;Beyond his formal lessons in math, however, Stefan was largely left to his own devices and his mother’s erratic whims,&nbsp;such as her project to recapture her twelve-year-old son's early years by bleaching his hair and putting him on a crawling regimen. In this “stunning debut memoir” (Jenna Bush Hager, The Today Show), Block beautifully reflects on his experiences in both traditional and at-home education systems, delving into: <ul> <li>The inception of the homeschooling movement and its massive rise throughout America</li> <li>Early memories of Block’s mother, and a poignant look into their dysfunctional mother-son story</li> <li>Block’s reentry into the public school system, both jarring yet insightful, and the bullying he withstood</li> <li>His emotional journey towards forgiveness, love, and hope as he becomes a parent himself</li></ul> At once a novelistic portrait of mother and son, and an illuminating window into an overlooked corner of the American education system,&nbsp;Homeschooled&nbsp;is a moving, funny and ultimately inspiring story of a son’s battle for a life of his own choosing, and the wages of a mother’s insatiable love. Praise for Homeschooled "One of the most beautiful books I've ever read."—Jenna Bush Hager “Absorbing.”—Washington Post “A revealing and deeply empathetic portrait of a complex relationship between mother and son.” –BookPage, starred review “Astonishing.”—The New York Post "Clearly told with the steadiness of a masterful writer."—Isaac Fitzgerald

Public Protection

Every object has a story to tell...Fine art. Priceless jewels. Museum-worthy masterpieces. In 1970s New York, the auction world was a velvet-rope affair--until Arlan Ettinger crashed the party.With his wife, Barbara, Arlan launched Guernsey's, a scrappy, anything-goes auction house that turned the industry on its head. Forget Old Masters--Guernsey's sold the unexpected, the irresistible, the downright bizarre. Doors from the legendary Chelsea Hotel. The entire contents of the SS United States. Personal treasures from JFK. If it had a story, Guernsey's could sell it--and suddenly, everyone wanted in.Part business adventure, part cultural time capsule, this is the story of the auction house that proved you don't need millions to own a piece of history--you just need curiosity, a sense of humor, and a willingness to see value where others don't. Because the real magic isn't just in what things are worth--it's in what they mean. A door, a suitcase, a scrap of paper: objects carry the lives, legends, and moments that shaped us. This book is a celebration of that invisible thread between people and things--and the surprising, often joyful ways our stories live on through what we leave behind.

Inside the Auction House That Made the Impossible Possible

The Art of the Unusual

A gripping and entertaining memoir that shines a rare light on an industry that is disrupting our lives. Veteran Morgan Stanley banker Alok Sama thought he'd seen it all. Then he found himself chief dealmaker at the most influential technology investor in the world-SoftBank, the backer of Arm Holdings, Yahoo, Nvidia, TikTok, Uber, T-Mobile, Alibaba and WeWork.The Money Trap is Sama's thrilling, stranger-than-fiction personal odyssey featuring his experiences alongside SoftBank's iconic founder, Masayoshi Son, a visionary maverick who wants to be remembered as "the crazy guy who bet on the future" and whose mission is "happiness for everyone." Sama takes the reader on a wild journey as he consorts with A-list CEOs and heads of state, and negotiates mega-deals on a Gulfstream jet, Son's sanctuary with its exquisite Japanese garden, and a waterside restaurant in the Turkish Riviera-all while contending with a mysterious dark-arts smear campaign that takes a toll on his private life.This fascinating and humorous saga provides a unique insider perspective on the insanity of high finance and venture investing. Written with self-deprecating wit, unflinching honesty and searing introspection, The Money Trap is ultimately a morality tale: in life, as in technology investing, more money isn't always the answer.
