Robert A. Ferguson examines the evolution of the American penal system, tracing the shift from retributive justice to the contemporary push for humanist reform. Through a rigorous analysis of legal history and social policy, the author interrogates the systemic failures of mass incarceration and argues for a fundamental restructuring of the relationship between the state, the law, and the individual.
