The book is praised for being interesting and highly captivating, drawing the reader in with its unique content. The reviewer particularly highlighted the striking observations about how none of the featured individuals felt guilty, with each universally claiming innocence or denying involvement. The book effectively showcases the diverse and often contradictory justifications employed by people attempting to absolve themselves of responsibility, which the reviewer found particularly revealing and even amusing.
However, a significant drawback noted is the book's structure, which consists solely of an author's introduction followed by the testimonies of the accused. This format proved problematic as readers may not remember or recognize all the individuals, requiring them to constantly search for background information on the accusations and sentences for each person. The absence of brief profiles or summaries introducing each case is deemed a major inconvenience, making it necessary to read the book alongside an internet search engine.
Despite these structural challenges and the need for external research, the reviewer ultimately rates the book highly, indicating that its compelling subject matter largely outweighs the practical difficulties. This book would be best enjoyed by readers fascinated by human psychology and the ways individuals rationalize their actions, especially in situations involving accountability. It is suited for those prepared to engage actively with the material and potentially undertake supplementary research to fully appreciate the context of the testimonies.
