[Cotton] cites the relevant scientific research on juror decision making, and then takes a more open-ended approach to study how jurors reached a guilty verdict in this case. This ultimately provides valuable insight into how jurors are likely to make judgments about human behavior based on their own experience, rather than relying on expert testimony that challenges commonly held assumptions about rational action. Recommended., "[Cotton] cites the relevant scientific research on juror decision making, and then takes a more open-ended approach to study how jurors reached a guilty verdict in this case.

Synopsis
Effigy examines the images of a capital defendant portrayed, by the defense attorneys and the prosecutor, during the guilt and penalty phases of capital trial, the trial tactics used to impart these images, and the consequences that result from the jury's attempt to reconcile contradictory images to place one in permanent record as a verdict., Effigy examines the images of a capital defendant portrayed, by the defense attorneys and the prosecutor, during the guilt and penalty phases of capital trial, the trial tactics used to impart these images, and the consequences that result from the jury's attempt to reconcile contradictory images to place one in permanent record as a verdict. These images are starkly contrasted against the backdrop of a brutal murder in which the stereotypes of American fear are realized: Donta Page, the defendant, is an African-American male from a low-income segment of society while Peyton Tuthill, the victim, was a Caucasian female from a middle-income suburb. The prosecuting attorneys depict the defendant as a "savage beast," juxtaposing their image against that of a "troubled youth" as Page is portrayed by the defense attorneys. Slowly and methodically developed as figures with diametrically opposed features, none of which overlap or congeal, both the images are portrayed as real (buttressed by the testimony of witnesses) rather than constructed. The jury is expected to render a verdict that accepts one and rejects the other: there is no middle ground., Effigy examines the images of a capital defendant portrayed, by the defense attorneys and the prosecutor, during the guilt and penalty phases of capital trial, the trial tactics used to impart these images, and the consequences that result from the jury's attempt to reconcile contradictory images to place one in permanent record as a verdict.

- e***a (272)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufSeller dispatched in approx 24hr. Book as described & all arrived fine as it was perfectly packaged for an international trip from the US to me in the UK. Padded envelope with thick cardboard spacer to keep the paperback straight and the book was snuggly wrapped in a plastic sheet to keep corners tight & unbumped. ABSOLUTELY PERFECT and I wish all sellers shipped books like this. It makes me so happy when sellers pay attention to details - nothing excessive, just perfect. Book even smelt nice :)
- 7***3 (86)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufA very trustworthy and communicative seller! The price of the books he sold me was so incredible, that I couldn't believe it until I received them. Books arrived in amazing condition (better than the photos conveyed) and the price and speed of shipping was the best I think I've had on eBay -- books arrived over 20 days before they were supposed to! Will buy from this seller again if I see an item I would like.6 VOLUME SET OF DAVE SIM & GERHARD BOOKS 6, 7, 8, 13 14, 15 GRAPHIC NOVELS (Nr. 235896476642)
- 4***a (450)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe item was as described ("like new"), was dispatched with alacrity and received much earlier than expected. Packaging was exceptional, demonstrating a strong commitment to customer satisfaction. All of this for an item that was priced to be a significant value. This seller gets my highest recommendation.
