This book analyzes the elements of criminal liability, focusing on the culpability of criminal defendants and the ends of punishment. The culpability of the offender is the lynchpin of criminal responsibility. It requires proof that the defendant’s conduct was harmful and was also blameworthy due to either intent or negligence. The author argues that punishment should prioritize prevention of future crimes by deterring both the perpetrator and others, rather than retribution against the offender. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the theoretical basis of criminal law.
