在這世界的大多數地方，貧窮的對立面並不是富有，而是「正義」。「我們用來衡量正義的真正標準，這足以象徵我們的社會、法律、公平與平等原則的指標，並不是我們如何對待在我們當中有錢、有權力、享有特權與備受敬重的人。真正能夠衡量我們社會品格的方式，在於我們如何對待那些貧窮、不受喜愛、遭到起訴、被定罪和被判處死刑的人。」──布萊恩．史蒂文森TED演講超過8,160,000人次感動點擊！諾貝爾和平獎得主戴斯蒙．屠圖、兩屆普立茲獎得主紀司道盛讚「美國的曼德拉」◆《紐約時報》、《華盛頓郵報》、《波士頓環球報》、《西雅圖時報》、《君子》等雜誌年度最佳選書◆《科克斯書評》年度非小說獎◆《洛杉磯時報》圖書獎◆美國圖書館協會最佳圖書獎◆卡內基獎章非文學類傑出作品◆美好人生書獎◆芝加哥大學法學院推薦書目如果你保持著距離，就無法理解到最重要的東西。 我們所處時代中最優秀且影響力最大的律師之一，用令人印象深刻的真實故事對我們述說仁慈的補救潛力。成立司法平等倡議會時，布萊恩．史蒂文森還是個聰慧的年輕律師，這個法律單位致力於為窮困的人、遭誤判的人，以及遭我們的刑事司法系統困於最難觸碰到的人辯護。他最剛開始承接的案例之一是華特．麥可米利安，一名為不是自己犯下的罪遭判死刑的男子。這起案件將史蒂文森捲入一場政治陰謀與法律邊緣策略的騷亂之中，自此永遠改變了他對於仁慈與正義的理解。 那起案件發生在阿拉巴馬州門羅維爾，一個因《梅岡城故事》聞名的小鎮。一九八六年，該地最繁榮的城區發生了一起搶劫謀殺案，一名年僅十八歲的白人女性被發現陳屍在洗衣店內，震撼了整個小鎮。 冤案主角華特．麥可米利安是非裔美國人，他的婚外情對象是名白人女性，此舉完全違反了當時美國南方對於跨種族戀情的禁忌，以致儘管沒有案底，卻為他招來巨大且致命的麻煩。案發後不久，他旋即遭警方以另一假託的指控逮捕，盤問少女命案的細節。在遲未偵破的時間和輿論的壓力下，警方刻意忽視對華特有利的證據，並設計捏造完全不足採信的證詞，草率地將謀殺罪名加諸其身，將他送入死牢。 甫踏入法律行業的布萊恩．史蒂文森協助這起案件時，受到來自執法人員的諸多刁難，甚至是來自法官的嚇阻，讓他見識到我們所以為的正義，原來也有不完美之處…… 我們每一個人，都無法用我們所做過最糟的事來定義。 你我盡皆需要他人的仁慈與恩典。【本書特色】※全書共有十七章，分為兩條故事線：單數章以被錯誤定
