I Know This World Is Killing You

45,824 words (about 183 pages in print): When Javy Sanchez was born premature, the doctors did not think he would live long enough to breathe the outside air. The day his beautiful Puerto Rican mother Rosa Sanchez took him home was a day of celebration. He had beaten the odds and been given a chance at life. Fast forward 19 years later, and Javy is fresh out of high school. He lives in Orlando, FL with his mother and her neurotic orange Pomeranian, Roberto. Javy spends a lot of his time with his best friend, Seth Watson, a troublemaker with a carefree disposition.

The Moral Responsibility Delusion

Belief in moral responsibility enjoys widespread support, both among philosophers and in popular culture. Moral responsibility for our characters and our acts is often regarded as beyond doubt or question, and, although the belief seems to be a cultural universal, it is particularly powerful in the USA and the UK. This book explores the deep psychological factors at the source of the profound commitment to belief in moral responsibility. Philosophers have developed legions of arguments in support of moral responsibility, but even philosophical champions of those arguments acknowledge that they are not conclusive and certainly not strong enough to account for the powerful belief in moral responsibility; and because those philosophical arguments are not widely known, they cannot be the source of the popular belief in moral responsibility. Belief in moral responsibility is rooted in forces that run much deeper than justifications favored by both philosophers and the layperson. This book is a quest to uncover those deeper sources, showing that the roots of the common belief in moral responsibility run deep, and they include powerful factors that rarely rise to consciousness.

On the Outside

One of the Vera Institute of Justice’s Best Criminal Justice Books of 2019 America’s high incarceration rates are a well-known facet of contemporary political conversations.

On the Outside examines the lives of twenty-two people—varied in race and gender but united by their time in the criminal justice system—as they pass out of the prison gates and back into the world. The book takes a clear-eyed look at the challenges faced by formerly incarcerated citizens as they try to find work, housing, and stable communities. Standing alongside these individual portraits is a quantita...
