Edited by Jonathan Burnside and Nicola Baker. Foreword by Lord Woolf.

In the light of widespread disillusionment with current measures to tackle crime, this book takes up a neglected theme at the heart of justice: the need to repair relationships damaged by crime, particularly those between victims and offenders. Thirteen authors have come together to explore this theme bringing personal and professional perspectives to the argument. The essays challenge current thinking about the criminal justice system and are designed to encourage debate on the values underlying penal theory and practice. The book is aimed at informed practitioners but the Relational Justice reform dynamic will be of interest to all people who are concerned about crime and responses to it

By Peter Singer

From the Jacket: “In The Life You Can Save, philosopher Peter Singer, named one of "The 100 Most Influential People in the World" by Time magazine, uses ethical arguments, pro- vocative thought experiments, illuminating examples, and case studies of charitable giving to show that our current response to world poverty is not only insufficient but ethically indefensible. Singer contends that we need to change our views of what is involved ni living an ethical life. To help us play our part ni bringing about that change, he offers a seven-point plan that mixes personal philanthropy (fig- uring how much to give and how best to give it), local activism (spreading the word ni your community), and political awareness (contacting your representatives to ensure that your nation's foreign aid is really directed to the world's poorest people).”
