His dramatic account of the Los Angeles Police Department’s recent fall and rise is steeped in his city’s rich history, its fraught racial and ethnic conflicts and its complex demographics."[11]
- Cruel Justice: Three Strikes and the Politics of Crime in America’s Golden State (University of California Press, 2004) has been assigned reading at Stanford University Law School[12], and was named one of the best books of 2004 by the San Francisco Chronicle.[13]
