Originally published: London: Printed for E. Newberry, 1775. viii,  iv], 179, lxxix pp. Infused with the spirit of the Enlightenment, its advocacy of crime prevention and the abolition of torture and capital punishment marked a significant advance in criminological thought, which had changed little since the Middle Ages. It had a profound influence on the development of criminal law in Europe and the United States, especially among the founding fathers. Originally published anonymously in 1764, this is a reprint of the fourth edition, which contains an additional text attributed to Voltaire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 276\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 02, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51800119869728,"sku":"9781584776383","price":51.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/a5c07b5b3733c4d4c68ba8298f894e2c.webp?v=1780833429","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/an-essay-on-crimes-and-punishments-translated-from-the-italian-with-a-commentary-attributed-to-mons-de-voltaire-translated-from-the-french-1775-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
