The qualitative analysis of the lower court system, offered in "The Proccess" is a worthwhile and very relevant read for anyone seeking to understand the inner workings of criminal courts. The author does an excellent job providing an explanation for how courts work and why they produce so few trials. I found myself recalling countless experiences from working in the family court system that directly applied to the analysis presented in this text. This book should be read by anyone interested in researching court outcomes. It really puts a different spin on outcomes and processes that are often hidden from the general public.
