Now, for the first time, he talks candidly about what it was like on the inside: the torture of solitary confinement, the abuse of power, the mental and physical torment of being locked up in a cage, the powerlessness. With newfound perspective, Kerik makes a plea for change and illuminates why our punishment system doesn’t always fit the crime.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn this extraordinary memoir, Kerik reveals his unprecedented view of the American penal system from both sides: as the jailer \u003ci\u003eand \u003c\/i\u003ethe jailed. With astonishing candor, bravery, and insider’s intelligence, Bernard Kerik shares his fall from grace to incarceration, and turns it into a genuine and uniquely insightful argument for criminal justice reform.","brand":"Threshold Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44306815484159,"sku":"9781476783710","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_ec86c961-1d43-4170-98d1-648f03064680.jpg?v=1746930751","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781476783710","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
