Doing Justice

A Prosecutor's Thoughts on Crime, Punishment, and the Rule of Law

De: Preet Bharara

Narrado por: Preet Bharara

*A New York Times Bestseller*

An important overview of the way our justice system works, and why the rule of law is essential to our survival as a society—from the one-time federal prosecutor for the Southern District of New York, and host of the Doing Justice podcast.

Preet Bharara has spent much of his life examining our legal system, pushing to make it better, and prosecuting those looking to subvert it. Bharara believes in our system and knows it must be protected, but to do so, he argues, we must also acknowledge and allow for flaws both in our justice system and in human nature.

Bharara uses the many illustrative anecdotes and case histories from his storied, formidable career—the successes as well as the failures—to shed light on the realities of the legal system and the consequences of taking action.

Inspiring and inspiringly written, Doing Justice gives us hope that rational and objective fact-based thinking, combined with compassion, can help us achieve truth and justice in our daily lives. Sometimes poignant and sometimes controversial, Bharara's expose is a thought-provoking, entertaining book about the need to find the humanity in our legal system as well as in our society.

If you're considering this book, just get it

I don't like to buy books under 13 hours, but glad I made the exception here. Very worth a credit. More to it than I thought but he still didn't change my mind about how toxic informers can't be to actually finding the truth, but I see his point of view. A thing that I thought about, after getting about half way through, was: I wish that other districts were run like his especially small districts around the country. Fair with justice the main motive.

And in case you haven't listened to him on his podcast - Stay Tuned, he has very good speaking voice, so narration was good.

Calming from the beginning.

I felt like the country will be alright after listening to this. There are good people in our justice system who are smart and care.

Surprisingly Entertaining!

I expected to be informed in an interesting manner as I listen to Preet’s podcasts. I got so much more than information out of this book. I became engaged. I am moved by the honesty. It was a reboot for me personally. I thank you for that most of all Preet.

can't get enough of preet

loved it. couldn't "put it down". I listen to preet weekly on his podcast and it wasn't enough. packed with great stories that take you behind the scenes in the top us attorneys office and inside the mind of a man truly concerned with doing justice rather than following blind ambition. preet is going places

My first 10hour book it was worth it

I really enjoyed this book, the stories of the people are unforgettable. Thank you Preet!
