{"product_id":"felony-murder-guyora-binder-9780804755368","title":"Felony Murder","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe felony murder doctrine is one of the most widely criticized features of American criminal law. Legal scholars almost unanimously condemn it as irrational, concluding that it imposes punishment without fault and presumes guilt without proof. Despite this, the law persists in almost every U.S. jurisdiction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFelony Murder\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book on this controversial legal doctrine. It shows that felony murder liability rests on a simple and powerful idea: that the guilt incurred in attacking or endangering others depends on one's reasons for doing so. Inflicting harm is wrong, and doing so for a bad motive--such as robbery, rape, or arson--aggravates that wrong. In presenting this idea, Guyora Binder criticizes prevailing academic theories of criminal intent for trying to purge criminal law of moral judgment. Ultimately, Binder shows that felony murder law has been and should remain limited by its justifying aims. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Guyora Binder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804755361\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804755368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford Law Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/09\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.09w x 0.78d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2012","brand":"Guyora Binder","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981259636991,"sku":"9780804755368","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4eccdc61-4866-4724-a057-0b82e265116d.jpg?v=1683254538","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/felony-murder-guyora-binder-9780804755368","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
