Various justices (Powell said so after he resigned) at some point came against the constitutionality of the death penalty. Two more said it was "likely" and this book provides that dissent with an added introduction and enhanced endnotes (Breyer doesn't do footnotes, so much of them basically translates references into them). The author is the wife of Senator Amy Klobuchar and wrote multiple books on the Eight Amendment and the death penalty.
