520 $a"In this volume, Swedish human rights activist and political figure, Hans Go ran Franck, examines the administration of the death penalty from an historical perspective. The author's opinions are based on his lifelong work and devotion to abolishing the 'barbaric punishment'. Building upon previously unpublished material and considerable detail drawn from Franck's personal experiences, it focuses on both the progressive developments within European countries and institutions over several decades, and the frustratingly retrograde situation that prevails in the United States"--P.
