THIS ANTHOLOGY DEALS WITH EMOTION AND REASON OPERATING WITHIN CRIMINAL JUSTICE PERSONNEL AS THEY ACT AND MAKE DECISIONS IN THE AREAS OF ARREST, DELIBERATION, JUDGEMENT, IMPRISONMENT, PROBATION, AND PAROLE.
Abstract
EMOTION TEMPERED BY REASON AND REASON MITIGATED BY EMOTION ARE CONSIDERED BY THE EDITOR TO BE DYNAMICS NECESSARILY INVOLVED IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE ACTIVITES OF A DEMOCRACY. THROUGH THE ARTICLES PRESENTED, HE INTENDS THAT THE READER WILL RECOGNIZE THERE ARE NO ABSOLUTE SOLUTIONS TO THE DIFFICULTIES THAT ARISE, BECAUSE BOTH REASON AND EMOTION MUST BE SIMULTANEOUSLY NURTURED IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE....RCB
