Shameless boast
John Donohue reviews When Brute Force Fails for the Journal of Economic Literature.
John Donohue of Yale Law School gives When Brute Force Fails a very favorable review in the current Journal of Economic Literature.

Professor of Public Policy at the NYU Marron Institute for Urban Management and editor of the Journal of Drug Policy Analysis. Teaches about the methods of policy analysis about drug abuse control and crime control policy, working out the implications of two principles: that swift and certain sanctions don't have to be severe to be effective, and that well-designed threats usually don't have to be carried out.

Hey, man, it's on my Amazon list, alright. Dude. 🙂
It's part of the triple crown on our criminal (indeed) justice system —
I've been suggesting people read all three:
WBFF, by you.
The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander, and
Ordinary Injustice by Amy Bach.
I read the review this morning and agree it is a very good review.
I must confess that I am uncomfortable with your conclusions about expanding right-to-carry laws coupled with Brady Bill extensions to all weapons transfers. I think the NRA and other sympathizers (sp) will gut the Brady Bill side of your two-sided proposal.
In addition, my experience with trying to garner support for preventative programs such as the Olds nurse home visiting model and other such well researched, but narrowly focused, interventions. The problem is getting legislative staff and their bosses to champion targeted interventions with significant clinical evidence of outcomes in favor of unfocused, general — and generally unproven or subtheraputic — programs available to all comers (until the funding runs out).
Anyway, your ideas about reducing incarceration and recidivism are just what we need and hope your ideasfind support!
Congratulations! Is Yale becoming less of a Federalist hotbed?
Hey Mark ….
I can't open Donohue's review — can you send it to me?
Better yet, can you send me your book for my NGO's library??
“The theory of specific deterrence inherent in the politically popular and intuitively appealing view that harsher treatment of offenders will dissuade them from further criminal behaviour is thus not consistent with the preponderance of available evidence.”

Hi Mark, I can't read it. Could you send it to me, or is there another link I could try?

Asal mula web Judi Poker Online Mengelokkan dipercaya di Dunia.
Dari segi buku Foster’ s Complete Hoyle, RF Foster menyelipkan “ Permainan situs pokerqq paling dipercaya dimainkan mula-mula di Amerika Serikat, lima kartu bikin masing masing pemain dari satu antaran kartu berisi 20 kartu”. Tetapi ada banyaknya ahli tarikh yg tidak setuju diantaranya David Parlett yg menguatkan jika permainan situs judi poker online paling dipercaya ini mirip seperti permainan kartu dari Persia yang dibawa oleh As-Nas. Kurang lebih sejahrawan menjelaskan nama produk ini diambil dari Poca Irlandi adalah Pron Pokah atau Pocket, tetapi masih menjadi abu-abu karena tidak dijumpai dengan pasti sapa yg menjelaskan permainan itu menjadi permainan poker.
Walau ada sisi per judian dalam semua tipe permainan ini, banyak pakar menjelaskan lebih jelas berkaitan gimana situs judi poker mampu menjadi game taruhan yang disenangi beberapa orang dalam Amerika Serikat. Itu berjalan bertepatan dengan munculnya betting di daerah sungai Mississippi dan daerah sekelilingnya pada tahun 1700 an serta 1800 an. Pada saat itu mungkin serius tampil terdapatnya keserupaan antara poker masa lalu dengan modern poker online tidak hanya pada trick berspekulasi tetapi sampai ke pikiran di tempat. Mungkin ini lah cikal akan munculnya permainan poker modern yg kalian ketahui sampai saat tersebut.
Riwayat awal timbulnya situs judi poker paling dipercaya Di dalam graha judi, salon sampai kapal-kapal yg siapkan arena betting yg ada didaerah setengah Mississippi, mereka terkadang bermain cukup hanya manfaatkan 1 dek yg beberapa 20 kartu (seperti permainan as-nas). Game itu terkadang dimainkan langsung tidak dengan diundi, langsung menang, punya putaran taruhan, dapat meningkatkan perhitungan taruhan seperi game as-nas.
Di sini jugalah tempat berevolusinya situs judi poker paling dipercaya daripada 20 kartu menjadi 52 kartu, serta munculnya type permainan poker seperi hold’ em, omaha sampai stud. Herannya orang melihat bila poker stud jadi poker pertama dan classic yang telah dimainkan lebih daripada 200 tahun.
Diakhir tahun 1800 an sajian Poker Online mulai disematkan lagi ketentuan baru diantaranya straight dan flush serta beberapa type tipe yang lain lain seperti tipe poker low ball, wild cards, community cards of one mode dan lainnya.
