"The Privilege Against Self-Incrimination: Its Origins and Development" is presented as a hardcover First Edition in Like New condition, with a crisp dust jacket that shows just a touch of shelf wear. Authored by R. H. Helmholz, Charles M. Gray, John H. Langbein, Eben Moglen, Henry E. Smith, and Albert W. Alschuler, this comprehensive exploration challenges the conventional accounts provided by John Henry Wigmore and Leonard W. Levy.In this prime condition, the book stands as a testament to meticulous care, preserving the covers in excellent shape and the binding square and tight. Minor abrasion on the front flyleaf is the only blemish, while the interior pages remain pristine, free from markings. The dust jacket, with only a touch of shelf wear, complements the overall condition, enhancing its authenticity.The privilege against self-incrimination, traced back to at least the twelfth century, undergoes a nuanced exploration, covering its medieval origins, appearance in English common law, translation to the American colonies, and transformation into an effective safeguard for criminal defendants in the nineteenth century. The authors critically examine its development, challenging the notion of the privilege as an unchanging tenet and revealing its diverse legal consequences throughout history.This book, constituting a major revision of our understanding of this fundamental aspect of both criminal and constitutional law, invites readers to immerse themselves in the complex evolution and legal implications of the privilege against self-incrimination.

Store description
Alien Bindings is an online bookshop located in Baltimore that has been in operation for nearly 20 years. Alien Bindings caters to the sciences including the physical sciences, astronomy, mathematics, computer science, the social sciences and medicine. I also dabble in a wide array of other categories including antiquarian books and history. I run a clean, green business. I try to reuse clean materials for packaging whenever possible. For example, books are carefully packaged frequently using clean cardboard for custom made boxes, recycled paper is used for printed labels and recycled plastic or bubble wrap is used for a weather-proof barrier. I drop the packages off to my local post office via foot or cycle in order to further reduce the carbon footprint.…
