Viac o knihe
The narrative explores the pivotal moment in 1962 when Justice Arthur Goldberg and clerk Alan Dershowitz challenged the long-standing acceptance of capital punishment. Their efforts sparked a movement among civil rights attorneys, culminating in the landmark 1972 Supreme Court case Furman v. Georgia, which unexpectedly struck down Georgia's death penalty law. Despite the deep divisions among justices, the ruling was widely interpreted as a potential turning point that could lead to the abolition of executions in the United States.
