Harvey A. Silvergate tracks the explosive rise in criminal laws over the past 40 years, illustrating the criminalization of everyday conduct and consequent overcriminalization. The dangers spelled out in Three Felonies a Day do not apply solely to “white collar criminals” and other elites. In fact, no-one is safe from this troubling form of social control by the executive branch, and nothing less than the integrity of our constitutional democracy hangs in the balance.
