5 This was more a failure of implementation than of conception. We had one other situation of this type. A book-length work on prosecutors to run parallel to Mann's on defense counsel didn't come to pass, but we have seminal work on prosecution by Katz (1979b, 1980). In any event, I agree with the reviewers that we could have done more in the prosecution area.Google Scholar

6 On this and other topics, we would have welcomed doing more to establish cross-national comparison, but that seemed beyond our scope. For one exception, see Montius & Rose-Ackerman (1981).Google Scholar
