The Killing of Bonnie Garland: A Question of Justice

Willard Gaylin

"Willard Gaylin is a gifted writer who is also a psychiatrist with long years of practice. The book is about an awful murder, but more than that it's about the inability of institutions of society -- Yale, and the criminal justice system -- to deal effectively with immorality and cruelty. The murder is the lens through which Gaylin brings social, moral and psychiatric issues into focus. Twenty years after I first read this book it remains vivid in my mind."

I admit that I've read this book three times,it's one of the best books I have ever read. Yes...I could read it "again" and so should you..

You can order a used copy for just $4.00
