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.

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.

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.

Brilliant !

Intelligent and Brilliantly performed by an exemplary US Attorney. Highly recommended by a non lawyer who is interested in understanding the system of Justice in the USA. This an excellent audiobook!

Wish he could run for president ...

I love Preet Bharara and this book does not disappoint. Well thought out, well written, well read by Bharara. Entertaining and thought provoking. So glad he took the time to write this book.

Not as expected...but an inspiring, smooth read.

The more I learn about Preet through his podcast, media appearances, and time as former AG of SDNY the greater my respect and admiration of him grows. He is a class act...a person of true integrity and wisdom. This book is an easy read and full of stories and experiences that shape his views of the justice system. He has a way of explaining complex legal issues with ease that is digestible and thought-provoking. I appreciate his voice, especially in the current climate. He makes me proud to be an American.

Also, join his Insider podcast - it's 100% worth the small cost.
