520 _a"The Prisoner at the Bar: Sidelights on the Administration of Criminal Justice" by Arthur Train is a nonfiction account written in the early 20th century. The book aims to provide a detailed and engaging exploration of the criminal justice system, highlighting the processes from arrest to conviction and examining the perspectives of the various participants, including the police, lawyers, and the accused. At the start of this work, Train introduces the complexities surrounding the concept of crime, emphasizing that public perception is often shaped by sensational media coverage rather than an understanding of the legal processes involved. He argues that many commonly held beliefs about crime and criminals are oversimplified or erroneous, and he seeks to provide clarity on the administration of criminal justice. The opening discusses the definition of a crime and highlights the intricacies of legal terminology, illustrating differences between various types of crimes and their implications. Train sets the stage for a comprehensive discussion on how individuals can be categorized as criminals and the societal implications of such classifications.
