Book Overview

For centuries, the writ of habeas corpus has served as an important safeguard against miscarriages of justice, and today it remains at the center of some of the most contentious issues of our time--among them terrorism, immigration, crime, and the death penalty. Yet, in recent decades, habeas has been seriously abused. In this book, Nancy J. King and Joseph L. Hoffmann argue that habeas should be exercised with greater prudence. Through historical, empirical, and legal analysis, as well as illustrative case studies, the authors examine the current use of the writ in the United States and offer sound reform proposals to help ensure its ongoing vitality in today's justice system. Comprehensive and thoroughly grounded in a modern understanding of habeas corpus, this informative book will be an insightful read for legal scholars and anyone interested in the importance of habeas corpus for American government.

Wonderful

This book is a joy, only wish there were more available. If you like Calvin & Hobbes, this will really tickle your funny bone.

Non Sequitur

By Thriftbooks.com User, June 4, 2009

This is a graphic book that can be enjoyed by a child, but is even better when the child becomes an adult. There is often more insight in a few cartoon panels than in an review on the editorial page of major newspapers. Wiley Miller is the greatest.

Non Sequitur's Sunday Color Treasury

By Thriftbooks.com User, February 23, 2006

This picture book gives excellent insight into Miller's career. He is one of the best and most subtle political cartoonists active today. He is right on so much of the time especially with the set of morons making the news these days.

One to treasure

By Thriftbooks.com User, November 17, 2005

Wiley is one of my favorite cartoonists. Not just my favorite - the National Cartoonists Society named "Non Sequitur" Best of the year, before it even a year old! These strips cover a variety of Wiley's sub-categories: Danae and Lucy (think the dark side Calvin and Hobbes), Obviousman the balding superhero, Cap'n Eddie and his tall tales, and Ele's new idea of how the dinosaurs became extinct - much the way our species is...
