Norp Think Factor

The author, a judge who has observed criminal behavior for more than 30 years, challenges the fundamental premises of our criminal justice system & explains clearly how our politicians unwittingly make crime worse rather than better. This controversial book will anger both liberals & conservatives because it exposes the folly of popular correction theories & the so-called "war on crime." Unless we clearly understand what he calls the "NORP Think Factor," we are doomed to repeat the same failed, worn-out theories over & over again. The author calls for a return to responsibility for our acts & the choices we make in life & sets forth an optimistic yet practical vision for a safer society. Judge Challeen has been a faculty member at the National Judicial College since 1978. Here are some comments by judges from throughout the United States who have heard his lectures: "Judge Challeen is a real piece of work! He marches to a different drum. We will all soon be in his army." "Finally, someone who understands the real world." "Brilliant, diagnostic information." "I think he is going to change courts all over the country." The late Vice President of the United States, Hubert H. Humphrey, said Judge Challeen's concepts "produce not only results but true justice."
