In this follow up to I Was Wrong: The Meanings of Apologies, Nick Smith expands his ambitious theories of categorical apologies to civil and criminal law. This book explains that penitentiaries were originally designed to bring about penance - something like apology - and this has been lost in the assembly line of mass incarceration.
