'Simply, utterly brilliant. Bursting with humility and humanity' THE SECRET BARRISTER
'A survival guide for the Trump era' GUARDIAN
Banned by Putin, fired by Trump. And now he's free to talk.
Multi-million-dollar fraud. Terrorism. Mafia criminality. Russian espionage. For eight years Preet Bharara, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, successfully prosecuted some of the most high-profile crimes in America. Along the way he gained notoriety as the 'Sheriff of Wall Street', was banned from Russia by Vladimir Putin and earned the distinction of being one of the first federal employees fired by Trump.
In Doing Justice Bharara takes us into the gritty, tactically complex, often sensational world of America's criminal justice system. We meet the wrongly accused and those who have escaped scrutiny for too long, the fraudsters and mobsters, investigators and interrogators, snitches and witnesses. We learn what justice is and the basics of building a case, and how judgement must be delivered not only with toughness, but with calmness, care and compassion.
This is not just a book about the law. This is a book about integrity, leadership, decision-making and moral reasoning – and one that teaches us how to think and act justly in our own lives.

"I'm a few chapters into the book, and I'm a bit dismayed that PB didn't have some kind of editor -- or at least it seems as though he didn't. He makes a point, then makes it again, then repeats the facts that comprised the story that led to the point, then makes the point again. It's a good-hearted book, full of valuable lessons that unfortunately I felt beaten over the head with. I would like to see PB appointed to the US Supreme Court, but at the same time offer my services as a reader/editor should he decide to write another book."

Doing Justice A Prosecutor Thoughts on Crime Punishment and the Rule of Law edition by Preet Bharara Politics Social Sciences eBooks Reviews
- Preet Bharara powerfully narrates his own story. Hearing it in his voice makes it all the more powerful. It is a human story, a story that can be listened to and enjoyed without taking notes. He speaks in every day English. It is an elegant speech. I find it thrilling that it is like listening to a soliloquy. I keep wanting to speak up and often do. Yes, I have interrupted Preet Bharara.
This is not just the story of his year in and out of office. This is his story, not the story of Barack Obama and Donald Trump. It is a story about who we are and who we should be. It is also about the real world -- it is about integrity and leadership. The meaning of truth is under fire "The creeping contempt for truth" is terrifying.
The Southern District of New York makes me think of Tim Russert saying 'Florida, Florida, Florida.' At some point the entire drama will end up playing out in the center of the world, not Florida this time, but the Southern District of New York. - I'm a few chapters into the book, and I'm a bit dismayed that PB didn't have some kind of editor -- or at least it seems as though he didn't. He makes a point, then makes it again, then repeats the facts that comprised the story that led to the point, then makes the point again. It's a good-hearted book, full of valuable lessons that unfortunately I felt beaten over the head with. I would like to see PB appointed to the US Supreme Court, but at the same time offer my services as a reader/editor should he decide to write another book.
- This is not a Trump bashing book. Instead it is an inspiring ramble through the legal process. It looks at the process and mindset of how justice should work. I am a scientist, and I was especially impressed by how much legal investigation and prosecution has in common with lab research. Patience, continual questioning of data and bias, and the necessity to admit when you are wrong; and of course, pursuit of truth.
- This is a beautifully written and thoughtful book about aspects of the criminal justice system that should be of interest to everyone. As a lawyer myself--but not one who is involved in criminal law--I found the book fascinating because it not only explains the nuts and bolts of the system, but uses stories of real people involved in it to bring it alive.
There is also something comforting, in this fraught time, about Preet's calm, measured, even humorous tone, both in writing and speech. I have both the and Audible editions and recommend them both. - A must read for everyone vested in the rule of law and the future of America. Ordering one for my 19 y/o granddaughter now.
- I enjoyed Preet's take on our justice system. He explains the way things are supposed to work (as opposed to the way Hollywood shows it), and how hard the decisions can actually be for the prosecutors, defenders, and judges. He uses actual cases to illustrate his points, and finds a way to explain the intricacies of our legal system in a way even non-lawyers can understand.
- i found several passages pendantic and often thought had made unexpected jumps to sections i had read. Over all this book has intensified my distaste for the ignorant oligarchs trump has unleashed on America. i feel more confident karma will grace ex-president trump with a New York orange jumpsuit.
- Well written, readable and SHOULD be read by anyone who wants to understand how the Justice department denizens think and go about their work.
